US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionNeed HELP K1-Visa interview DENIED because of child

My Fiance child was denied a Visa because of lack of documents.

Does anyone know what documents are needed for the son on a K1 Visa? Also what medical documents are needed for the child? The child is under 6.

I checked everywhere on the site but found nothing?

All my Fiance documents are good, but they said the son requires more documentation. My Fiance was not sure which documents.

Could anyone please help?



hello may i ask where ur fiance is from? im concernd bout this topic cause im taking my kids as well.
good luck to us

Late BC won't cause any problems with the initial petition but being late registered can cause problem at your embassy interview. Some people get put on AR because of it. You should start getting all the evidence you can proving you are who your BC says you are. Start with baptismal records, school, work, SSS, postal ID Etc.

PhilippinesAffidavit of Support

Hello everyone, I've been reading some of the post on here and it says that the Manila Embassy does NOT accept Co-sponsors for the Affidavit of Support? Is that true? Why? I also read that by March 2010 they are changing the Poverty Line (hopefully it doesn't change by much). Well i've filed my 2009 taxes already and for 2009 I do meet the income requirement. Say, even with the changes in March 2010, i still meet the income requirement, do I still need to bring or show 3 years worth of taxes (2009, 2008 & 2007). Because if I do, 2008 and 2007, I did not meet the income requirement. Pls any help will be greatly appreciated. Another question I have is, my fiance was previously married in the Philippines. He got an annulment and it has been approved. He sent me his paperwork but he was still waiting for his certificate of finality. I mailed in our I-129F package before I even got the certificate of finality. Do you think I will get an RFE for not sending in the certificate of finality. Should I still mail the certificate of finality to the USCIS or just wait until we get approve or wait to see if we get an RFE (crossing fingers we don't)? Thank you for all your help



i have n clue about getting an RFE when u dont include ur fiance's annulment decree in the packet..as for us, we waited for my annulment to finish ..got the decree and sent it together with the packet..if u read the instructions it says ,if ur fiance was married u need to send a copy of decree/finality. Plus ur fiance needs to bring an original copy of the annulment decree during the interview.
we didnt want hassels so we patiently waited till annulment was over before we sent the packet. i just hope everything goes well for u guys.
We are also worried about the changes of poverty guidelines i have no clue if it applies to people who are just about to file( this march 2010) or it goes for everyone including 2009 filers ( hope not)..im still looking for answers. Good luck to us!

PhilippinesNO SIGNATURE FOR EMPLOYERS LETTER (AFFIDAVIT OF SUPPORT)

I don’t think it will “complicate things.”

If that’s all the employer will give you then submit 2-3 pay stubs with your I-134. As the sponsor, make sure you have the other (Supporting Evidence) that the instructions request, remember it’s the totality that counts.


thanks sjr that helps :yes:

PhilippinesNO SIGNATURE FOR EMPLOYERS LETTER (AFFIDAVIT OF SUPPORT)

Date and nature of employment:

Salary paid; and

Whether the position is temporary or permanent.

PhilippinesNO SIGNATURE FOR EMPLOYERS LETTER (AFFIDAVIT OF SUPPORT)
hi my fiance got his empoyment letter from his work..it tells how long has he been working with them AND THATS ALL IT SAYS.
my question is..does it need to say more like putting in how much u get in a year??
he indicaed that if USCIS needs to ask more info for verification they are free call(then he wrote his number and address)
is this sufficient enough???

one more thing...
should my fiance ask for that employment letter after getting NOA2? so the would see that its dated right after we get NOA2 or it doesnt matter if we do it ahead of time??? confusing...i was told that we shouldve waited until we get NAO2.argh!

Philippinesi need some explanation here

Here's where it gets weird.

yer timeline states yer filing as a K-1 visa holder.

So - each child needs a 'set' for K2 visa.

USUALLY - thats a DS-156, DS-157, a medical exam, for each.

NOT SURE about the I-134, but it can all be evaluated on YOUR interview day.

IF YOU RUSH - ie - you get all ready when the USC person has received the NOA-2 -
then all of you (you plus the 3 children) can be interviewed on the same day.

Usually, a K-1 person sends in THEIR DS-156, DS-157, plus DS-230 part I, and if any children,
a set of DS-156, DS-157 on each child, for a derivate K-2 visa.
thank u darnell very wel said .. :thumbs:


Even though the children are LISTED on YOUR I-129F petition, they have to have their own VISA APPLICATION documents (just like YOU DO) to send in to the Embassy in Manila. Thankfully, for you, it's not a whole new petition to be filed at USCIS, but instead, it's a VISA APPLICATION to be filed at the embassy.

If yer not a K-1 visa person, please:
1. let us know and
2. change all of yer settings on this portal to reflect the visa yer applying for.

to wrap up , though -

if someone told you to file for an I-130 petition, and was not a government employee, I would question the validity of the information you've received.

USUALLY a K-1 applicant (you) does not need to file an I-130 petition for any children - they come in via derivative K-2 status, is different forms, never an I-130.

Philippinesphsyc evaluation for those who went through an annulment?
hi there everyone..i wonder if someone went through the same story like mine..
my fiance filled for k1-k2 visa december 17 and my (3 kids) already had their vaccines.
As for me, i had to go through phsyc evaluation before i have my vaccine(which i wsnt aware of) :bonk: ..
i never knew this until the 3rd day of our medical at st lukes.i was suppose to have my interview april 12 but i was
adviced to wait until i get results from the phsyc doctor.OH WHAT A WASTE OF TIME! :bonk:
The Doctor said that it would take 2 weeks to get the results and to be forwarded to st lukes,
but my fiance just went balistic about it and begged to get it sooner..the doc promised to do it as quick as she
can so now were just waiting 1 week (i hope)..
my question is..CAN WE JUST CALL THE US EMBASSY FOR OUR RESCHEDULED INTERVIEW??instead of getting
st lukes to do the new sched for us??cos ive heard theyd schedule us 2 weeks after i get the vaccine!
we have waited 1 year and 4 mos for my annulment to be over and i think too much time was wasted over
this stupid wait..pls help :help:

PhilippinesIS PASSPORT NEEDED WHEN U ATTEND CFO SEMINAR??

My girl did it without her passport at PRISM and she only had her NBI card for an ID. She did after her St Luke's medical and St Luke's kept her passport. The seminar is the main thing that takes time. You get your yellow certificate when you're done and when you get your passport back,, you just take the certificate to CFO and they give you a sticker for another 400P. Good luck.

PhilippinesHOW TO GET TO CFO FOR SEMINAR

You may want to do the one at PRISM. Everyone says it's less strict than the Nuns at St Marys.

ok thank u can u tell me where its specifically located?i need the address :unsure:

The CFO main office doesn't do the seminars anymore, but you still have to go to the main office to get your sticker after you do the Seminar at St Mary's or PRISM. My girl is from Cebu and did the seminar in Manila because the nuns in Cebu St Mary CFO are crazy about documents and stuff and PRISM isn't in Cebu.
