K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Increase in RFE issuance?	And: For The Record: Not to go-off Topic. The member has given good advice in the past. We are all human just like USCIS. Maybe woke-up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. VJ is a Member to Member help Forum. So many times as we are human we forget that. I'm Guilty myself sometimes.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Increase in RFE issuance?	This is incorrect and hurtful. I double and triple checked my package against the guides and stickies here, posted questions, researched everything. I got an RFE requesting a passport photo of myself, even though I had sent the two requested with the original petition. They must have lost the first round of photos. Also, as Martin and Tricia posted, they got an RFE for a birth certificate even though they sent it with the original package. VSC lost it. These RFEs are not our fault, which makes me suspicious VSC is just doing anything to buy time. Please do not post your incorrect judgments. I seen alot of Supportive Comments (Except for One Know-it-All) Ignore that Comment Monyfer. That is one hell of a Time-Line. I Understand your thoughts and Aggression. Focus now on the Positive. The RFE was a Simple Passport Picture that USCIS should have told you about ALONG TIME AGO. They won't Admit they made a Mistake. But, the GOOD NEWS IS. A Simple RFE. You Should Recieve Notification of Your NOA2 Shortly.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-10 15:29:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Waiting to mail in I-129f	Maybe I read this wrong after watching all the fighting. But, does'nt it say on the FIRST OP. That he admits not having everything neccesary to submit a True and Complete 129-F. He states there are Criminal Matters that need to be addressed that should be included in the 129-F. Birth Certs. Also. Again, I may have read it wrong but, I think he's saying his Application is Incomplete. As far as the Signatures, April 2011 is fine. Don't get me in this Fight. I'm always in trouble.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Police Records for pettioner	I am not trying to be lazy by all these questions. But half the time .. I suppose i don't word things quite correctly in searchs. Well just a question, i was wondering if iwas to marry my fiancee and go about a different visa, would i need ALL police records on myside, USC I am not trying to go around anything here, I am just also preparing ahead of time... maybe i shouldn't, but if we was to get denied. - thanks Good Quote: But just exactly what is on your Police Records that worries you? Your not being Lazy, your avoiding your own question. You said: Just a question. (I was wondering ?) Wondering what I ask? Hard to answer if members don't know what worries you. (you posted it) What worries you? All your Police records are open to USCIS. Not trying to harsh but, you have to say something more than that to get a fair answer.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	My I-134 questions	My apologies for any redundancy imposed by these questions... I did search "I-134" on the site and looked through numerous threads for my specific answers, but didn't find what I was looking for. I thought just asking would be faster. 1. It says on the form instructions to "Submit in duplicate evidence of income and resources, as appropriate". WHAT? Does this mean I need to submit two identical I-134 packages? 2. How far out can you send this form to your fiance? My fiance doesn't have an appointment scheduled yet - as we're waiting for some "appointment letter" or "letter of eligibility", among other things. Due to the rate of speed with which government entities operate in the Philippines, we may have to re-validate our approval anyway. I just want to know how "recent" the pay stubs need to be? Like if I send it next month, is that too soon - having no interview scheduled as of yet? Plus I need to account for the month that Philippine Customs will hoard the package... I just want to make sure she has this whenever she does interview. 3. The form on the USCIS website expires 5/31/2011. Where is the new version, so I can begin working on this? 4. What is the difference between a tax return and a tax transcript? I see many of you using the wording "tax transcript". Is this being used interchangeably with "tax return"? Like when I go into TurboTax and reprint what I filed to the IRS (for past 3 years), is that what they want? 5. If income is sufficient, must you still list and provide supporting documentation of all of your other property/assets? It doesn't say that these questions are Optional. Do they REALLY need to know the value of my stocks, home and life insurance? I would think my tax returns, W-2s, and pay stubs would be enough. 6. Why does the statement from the bank need to be from an officer? What does this need to say? Why can't I just go online to my bank and filter the direct deposits so that they can see the amount deposited is my income. I do all of my banking online. Is this item really necessary? Thanks for your answers! Get Copies of your Tax Transcripts here. http://www.irs.gov/i...=110571,00.html Takes about 8 days and you will get a live operator during business hours from the IRS. If your Income is sufficient then listing Assets and Property are not needed. VJ members are separated as to a Bank Statement . Some will say Include it and others will say not needed if your Income is sufficient also. So Members can add from here.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-14 14:22:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Average time from NOA1 to K1 approval?(I129F)	The KEY WORD in the OP's Post is Not NOA2. It is K-1 Approval. Thats the Visa.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-13 17:40:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Average time from NOA1 to K1 approval?(I129F)	6 to 10 months if everything goes smoothe. The Petiontioner must act quickly to any/all notifications and the beneficiary must be fast on her replies. Work Together.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-13 17:35:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Letting a K1 expire...what happens next?	Also if she crossed the Border using a K-1 Visa and Overstays. You will find A BIG MESS Later. There is NO Such thing to My Knowledge of Overstaying a K-1 Visa (90 Days). Where did you get this 6 month idea?	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-14 16:54:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Letting a K1 expire...what happens next?	I had a quick question. My fiancee and I got the K1 visa. If she comes here from canada and in the three month period we do not get married, what happens next? Does she have to go back instantly or is she able to stay for the six month period minus a day as if she was just visiting? Can you get an extention on the K1 expire date before use? Or an extention onthe visa once crossed the border? Has anyone had their K1 expire and then try to apply for another K1 with the same person? What are the issues with trying to apply for another K1 after having one expired, will it be harder? I am also a Canadian citizen, if we let the K1 expire and I go up there and we get married...would they frown upon that if then we were married and I wanted to bring her to the usa? Thanks! I think Your K-1 Visa will be Null and Void for not meeting the90 day requirement in your Original 129-F Petition. You MAY have to start all over witht he process with a CR-1 and another time period separate.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-14 16:47:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Income for I-134	Hi, I just finished filling out the first phase of the K1 visa packet! Yipee. I am also sending my fiance an exact duplicate packet and a copy of the I-134 which I filled out... I do have a question. He doesn't make as much money as I do, and he doesn't have any assets or savings. I am a school teacher and have a 401 k plan too but I don't own a house. What is the minimal income that is needed? Do we still need an additional sponser? If I am asking these questions about income, will the application be denied because I am not wealthy. Your Timeline indicates a K-1 Petition and a 129-F Application. You sent a I-134 Form for no reason. That is later as far as Income Requirements. As far as the beneficiary's income will have no bearing on the Approval. The Petitioners Income is only counted. The Orignil 129-F is for backgrounds checks of the Petitoner/beneficiary. For a Couple of 2 the Petitioner should have a a minium of $ 18,318.00 if alone going by GROSS Income. I have doubts about that because it might be $18,218.00 Gross Income. If these requirements are hard to meet then Assets can be used. Well, it's a start.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-15 23:02:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	G-325A residency and employment history	My fiance is a horrible employee. Originally from Gingoog, she lived in Cagayan de Oro for three months and worked there for two, then went home, then went to Manila three months ago, worked less than a month, and just today told 'em take this job and shove it. She will go back home again soon. Now we're filling out out Bios, and we're wondering if we should even bother listing these things, or just put down the home address where she's lived her entire life, and only list her college under employment. Her mailing address has always been in Gingoog. Any experience with this issue? Fiance' is Him/Fiancee' is Her. Answer the questions on the 325 as truthfully as posible. Use the Parents mailing address for notifications and Documents if this is always what she uses as a address. Does not matter if she can hold a job in the end. The Petitioner has to prove Income for his Fiancee'. I will have to ask Mav later. How do I say " Take this job and shove it" in Tagalog later. I better get used to it because I'm sure she's going to tell me to "Shove It Alot"..	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-16 03:45:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	We did not take photos	Now you will say: It is not required that pictures are to be included in the VJ Outlines. Well, what is COMMON SENSE. To The OP.. Are you absolutely sure that a family member or friend did take pictures, even if just 0ne or Two.?	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-16 21:04:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	We did not take photos	I don't believe this to be true at all. Boarding passes and Motel reciepts don't mean you were with her/him. Paperwork only shows dates that you were actually there. In addition: It is required that pictures be submitted with the 129-F. Mav and I had 2 cameras and Made sure they were developed and printed so we both had copies. Pictures are secondary in a way but not many submit a 129-F without pictures. I would love to hear from a member that said: I recieved my NOA2/NOA1 without Pictures. Then the question would be Answered. As for the OP. Good Luck. Now you will say: It is not required that pictures are to be included in the VJ Outlines. Well, what is COMMON SENSE.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-16 20:57:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	We did not take photos	At I129F stage you do not need any pictures, only primary evidence. Just send boarding passes, and hotel receipt and copy of the entry stamp and you will be fine. You will need them at the interview stage though. I don't believe this to be true at all. Boarding passes and Motel reciepts don't mean you were with her/him. Paperwork only shows dates that you were actually there. In addition: It is required that pictures be submitted with the 129-F. Mav and I had 2 cameras and Made sure they were developed and printed so we both had copies. Pictures are secondary in a way but not many submit a 129-F without pictures. I would love to hear from a member that said: I recieved my NOA2/NOA1 without Pictures. Then the question would be Answered. As for the OP. Good Luck.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-16 20:50:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	When is Form G-325a to be submitted?	Oh. STOP THIS NONSENSE.. The OP's Original Thread States; I think I made a Mistake ! (After already Mailing the Application 3 days Ago.) Yes, it was a serious mistake but this is where we attempt to help the Member and NOT Lecture them. I certainly agree 300 pages is not required and will not be read anyways by USCIS. A few will do (Communication.) I do admit that this member left out IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS "REQUIRED". Hard Lesson there ! USCIS "Cannot" Complete a Investigation of the Petitioner/Beneficiary without these documents. Thats why we wait 4 to 7 months in some cases. I read VJ Forums alot and what Members Posted before I even met my Fiancee and after looking at good advice and bad advice hired an Attourney since there is such a separation of Good Advive, Bad Advice and Members Playing God on this Forum. Seems for SOME MEMBERS ONLY, the futhur you get Approved for this and for that you forgot it is a HELP FORUM. Personally, Me and Mav are still awaiting NOA2. (5 Months on this Tuesday.) But that does'nt stop me from trying to imput their situation when I think I might be able to help SOME. Advice is good but not to Play God or act like an Attouney. Looking at VJ. Thats why I hired an Attourney. When you post something: You never know if a HATER will reply. I don't think I would risk that. I'm sure hate replies will come to me but, $1,500.00 for the Attourney for the rest of my life is better than watching the fighting here sometimes. Just my thought. When I reply to a Member Post, I try and help. Not give them S.......	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-15 19:24:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	When is Form G-325a to be submitted?	If a petition will languish in inaction ("grow cobwebs"), why can't I submit the missing G-325a form? After all, if USCIS sends RFEs (requests for evidence), the evidence must be sent somewhere to someone or something wanting that evidence. What is that process? All Forms must be translated in English. Also, The RFE is sent to the Petitioner ONLY and/or Attourney if you have one. One final note: Fill out these Forms properly the First Time	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-15 16:29:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	When is Form G-325a to be submitted?	The photos were in an envelope stapled to the I-129F. I will have my fiancee sign her form and mail it back to me. Have her send "2" completed in ink and signed, you yourself as well. I would attempt what I wrote above ASAP. It maynot do anygood but you never know. As it stands now, you are really waiting for a RFE 4 to 5 months from now for not completeing the Required 325's. Good Luck	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-15 16:10:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	When is Form G-325a to be submitted?	Respectively, attached to what. The 129-F ? Get to your Fiance/Fiancee a 325 as soon as posible and have that filled out and you yourself. Also, make sure the dates on the Form(s) is current. (USCIS Forms have expiration Dates usually located at the bottem Right hand Corner) I would take a LONG SHOT and try this. Have "2" 325's filled out by each of you. Make ALWAYS a Copy of the NOA1 and send that with ONE OF EACH of the Signed and Completed 325's. Save the Other 2 for a posible RFE. Always send a Copy of the NOA1 with any Supportive Documents.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-15 15:58:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	When is Form G-325a to be submitted?	Yes, passport photos were attached. Respectively, attached to what. The 129-F ? Get to your Fiance/Fiancee a 325 as soon as posible and have that filled out and you yourself. Also, make sure the dates on the Form(s) is current.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	When is Form G-325a to be submitted?	I'm sorry to say this but, your application/petition will grow some cobwebs and when they feel like it, send you a RFE.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-15 15:48:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	When is Form G-325a to be submitted?	After a diligent search of the USCIS website, these forums, the Code of Federal Regulations, and commercial websites, I cannot determine when USCIS requires the submission of Form G-325a. The USCIS website does not mention it in its K1 Visa instructions. This issue and others have me fretting. If I want to supplement or make amendments to my petition application, can I do so? How? My K1 application (with 300 pages of evidence) was submitted on May 12, 2011. Thank you for reading. Your 129-F Petition is Incomplete lacking the 325's and also states passport photo to be attached to the 325. Did you send Passport Style Pictures?	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-15 15:43:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	DENIED . . . ?	@ Tim/Mav, facebook is what??? because me and my fiancé mostly talk on facebook and phone calls ? Never Erase your Facebook Messages between you and your Finacee. They are printable. Facebook shows a date and time and shows proof of Communication. Phone Bills show International Calls to a Specific Number. For my 129-F Application I only used Facebook and their was,nt a problem with the NOA1. I still keep records of Yahoo but, was told several times the are unadmissable. We know the cost of International Calls is not cheap, but it is well worth it to document a phone bill each month. (Plus, we get to hear her Nag, LOL) PROOF OF A ONGONG RELATIONSHIP is REALLY What This Topic is. (Or what it changed into) Hope that helps	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-05-10 17:16:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	K1 application moves to NBC then back to USCIS	We filed Dec 28, NOA1 sent on Jan 5... March 6 I got a message that our case had been sent to NBC (National benefits center) and on March 16 another message that our case had been sent back to a USCIS location. It didn't say which one, but I assume it is CSC where it originally came from. Any one know why or if this is normal? Any feed back is appreciated! Thank you!	Matt&Deb	Female	United Kingdom	2011-04-19 09:52:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Request for Evidence (RFE)	I just checked our status at USCIS.gov and it says that they sent us a RFE. I wonder how long will it take to get our noa2 after we submit what they need? Thanks!!!! We didn't receive an RFE but it seems like those that do get their NOA2 very soon after the submit evidence requested.... good news is they are processing your case.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Intent to marry	The petitioner's Letter of Intent does not have to be Notorized but any Attourney will advise this. It shows meaningful intent is all. LIKE "I DO".	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-02-03 23:02:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Meeting online	On the I-129F I recall a check-box. Does IMBRA Apply. Yes or No. You would Check Yes if you met on a site such as: CherryBlossum.; A dating network. If you meet on a site such as My-Space, Facebook. Then IMBRA would not apply and you would check No. No matter what way you meet; be truthful, meeting On-line is no big deal anymore.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-02-05 00:48:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Current Poverty Line for the US ?	I believe the currant USCIS is at 125% and is $18,213.00 for 2010. However, I believe (But not sure) Only 100% is required until The AOS which requires 125%. Other members correct me if I'm wrong.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-02-04 00:16:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Express Mail package sent to the wrong address	Well, I don't know really. But what I would ask is: #1. How did you make payment. Watch for your check to be Cashed. (This happens pretty fast.) #2. How long ago did you send the Packet? #3. Did you pay for a Confirmation that your Packet was signed for and recieved. (did you get a tracking number?) #4. Have you created an Account with USCIS yet to see if it was Accepted. Depending on how long ago you mailed your petition and you have not seen any of the above listed. I too would be worried. Not just for the delay, but getting all my information back that took so long to put together. Good Luck, hope it works out.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-02-05 02:59:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	G325A	I don't think you will need to worry so much. The Financial information is asked later. If you feel you will get a request have the imformation ready in case you do. Don't stay up all night wondering What came First, the Chicken or the Egg. Good luck.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	do i need to show engagement ring for the CO interview?	If you have one --there is no harm in wearing it at the interview, and also they may not ask for it . Like May/Tim said --my fiancee has an engegement ring but does not wear it to work and when she goes out since she is agraid of losing it , or for it to get stolen .Her mom keeps it in a sfe place .I will ask her to wear at her interview as further proof since we took many pics of our the engagement ceremony with some with me on my knees proposing to her But as I said it just depends on whose consular officer interviews you . OMG Richie Rich. Does going to Jollebee's and getting a hot dog count as an Engagement Party?	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-02-07 06:08:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	do i need to show engagement ring for the CO interview?	Interesting Topic Rose. You know, I don't have an Answer to that. Mavylyn has a Engagement Ring but she does not wear it. She is concerned she will loose it, get stolen, etc. It is keeped in a safe place at her Nanay and Tatays and she only wears it when she visits her parents, then when she returns back to work and where she lives, her Nanay puts it away for her again in a safe place. I don't think its a big deal for the CO to see it. It is optional in the I-129F to show receipts for a Ring and not required. Mavylyn is planning on wearing it to the Interview if we get that far but I know after the Interview it will go back in Nanay's safe keeping. Most Philipina's are very shy and do not flaunt jewlery anyway. In humor, Philipina's cherrish a Cell Phone. LOL. They don't care about a ring.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-02-06 11:42:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	When does my fiance have to stop visiting	There is nothing to stop from visiting. It helps, just don't overstay a passport or visa. Relax, Take pictures and keep reciepts. Have a good time!	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-02-07 10:08:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Nervous!	Hope this helps: This is what my Attouney included with the I-129F Petition.. A copy in full color of both our Passports Cover to Cover. Every Page (Blank or Not) Both are Birth Certificates. BEST COPY and also translated if in another lauguange Copies of plane tickets, hotel receipts. Attourneys (though this is optional) ask the petitioner's Letter of Intent" to be Notorized. Copy of Engagement Ring receipt. (optional) Best Copy Pictures ( 8 to 12 ) of you together. Double check the 325 for typos, names etc. and be sure there signed. 5 Year employment history with addresses. ( My Attourney added a Ademdum to my 325 since there is little room to write in that small box ) Hope this helps, I might have missed a few things. Good Luck.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	proof of employment	I really suck on this Topic because I'm Unemployed right now. But if My Boss were to write a letter it would state: Rate of Pay.

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	should i wait 2 years before applying for fiance visa	Mark is Right. But, there is alittle more to it. TRUE. 2 years is the Requirement that you met in person and have documentation: Such as pictures, plane tickets, e-mails, phone bills. But there is More: Your K-1 Application: (129-F) Passport Copies in Full Color. Cover to Cover even the Blank pages showing USCIS where you been and where she has been. If she has never obtained a Passport get that started... Hotel or any Kind of Reciept showing payment for Services while you were there in January. (Why did it take so long to File I just ask myself) Photo copy pictures of you together and try and explain what you are doing that day and SMILE. Send about 12 pictures at least. A Cover letter is also good telling the World and USCIS this is my Woman. A "Letter of Intent" to Marry within 90 days of her Arrival to the US. Each is Individual and Signed by each of you. (Black Ink and Do not send a Copy) Send the Original. Not Required: But have yours Notorized as the Petitioner. Documentation you are free to Marry and she is as well. (No such thing as I'm in between relationships) Include Your last 5 Years of Employment history on the 325 and complete it. Addresses, etc. There is little room to write so add a Addemdem if you need more space. (Mark as Attchment to 325) Passport Photos. 2x2 of each of you attached to the 325. Hope this helps. Its only a start. I missed somethings I'm sure. As far as having to know eachother 2 years is not true. Physical Touch in person is a requirement. Hope this helps. Be pre-pared for them (USCIS) to investigate everything. You have ONLY One Good Shot at your First Petition so do a good Job and study VJ. (I know alot of this because I did'nt feel I could handle it and Hired an Attourney) Good Luck Tim/Mav Sorry, add Birth Certificates for each of you. ONLY BEST COPY. If hers is not Translated it will have to be. Color is Preffered. Include 2 of each of Passport pictures for each of you. Date and SIGN all the Forms. People forget to sign and get a request for Evidence later.	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-02-23 06:51:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	thinking about quitting my job	Does your Co-Sponsor know that you are going to quit your job ?	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-02-24 04:14:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	how much?	The Basics for The Philipphines: Pictures for Passport about $8.00. Passport about $100.00 and a month wait. Plane ticket: About $1,300.00 Round trip. Taxi fare depending on how far she is from Manila. (Figure each way) cost me about $300.00. ($150.00 each way) Motel room for about 2 weeks. (Was cheap, about $350.00) Living expense vary but take her out and make her feel good. I only brought carry-on so no extra baggage was charged. Leaving Manila: This is funny: The guards asked for $3.00 USD to put me in front of the line and not have to wait in line with the others. Tax for departing Manila was 750 pesos or less than $20.00. Now, when you arrive home and assemble your petition: $340.00 for the Petition for the I-129-F. (more Passport pictures of you and your Fiance'. there not free) Now wait for your NOA2. Pay Approx. $ 350.00 for the Medical Exam. Not counting Cenomar, Transportation and a Overnight stay in Manila plus the Video required to watch that is also not free. Figure $550.00 or more. If all goes good and the petition is Approved. Plan on a $1000.00 Plane Ticket one way and there is always EXTRA for baggage depending on the Airline you choose. Get Married. There is no such thing as a Coupon for this so you get the idea. Then the Adjustment of Status if K-1. I think about $1,070.00. I'm sure More qualified Members that know the Philiphhines would say these figures are close: And This is WITHOUT A ATTOURNEY.. If you can do this without an Attourney (like I did) Good. My Attourney charged $1,500.00 for the petition alone. Good luck and study and you'll be fine! Tim/Mav	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-02-24 06:13:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	Not enough space to answer	Yes, .. It has also been a problem I have seen for people to fill-out the last 5 years of Employment history as well, The form even asked for Periods of Unemployement and still, your your supposed to write in the addresses in that little box. Doing it on the computor so it is readable to Immagration Services is good. BUT. Dont FORGET to SIGN AND DATE IN BLACK INK the Addemdum (Attachment to 325) Yours truly . Hope this helps	Tim/Mav	Male	Philippines	2011-02-26 12:29:00
