US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionWaiting for K1 VISA

Try to call USEM (look for Grace or Lorraine) and inquire the status of your visa delivery. They might give you an answer.

Thank Riza. We will call. I noticed you have similar dates to us. Have you received your visa yet, by chance?

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionWaiting for K1 VISA
Hello all,

I have a question for anyone that might be able to provide insight. My fiancee had her interview at the embassy on April 23, but had to submit additional paperwork on April 29th. She was told to wait a week, and we assumed the visa would arrive via Delbros after the week. But here we are, april 6th, and the visa has not yet arrived. In fact, she even contacted Delbros, and according to them, they still haven't received the visa from the embassy. Since she lives in the province of Laguna, it is supposed to take a week to be delivered by delbros. Therein lies our problem. She has a scheduled flight leaving from the PI to the USA in just 9 days. I can change the flight easily because of my elite flying status, but I'd prefer not to. Does anyone have any idea of how long it typically takes to get the visa after the visa interview? Do we still have a chance on the May 15th date? Thanks...

Jeff

I was just curious how many people have been asked for a Baptismal Certificate during their interview.

If you were asked and did not have it, did they fuss about it?

If you were asked for it, how many items did you have showing your birthdate?

yes the pre screener asked me the baptismal because my BC is late registered, also i dnt have the CENOMAR with me during the interview...interview was april 23, docs forward to NSO may 5,....still waiting the VISA....

Hello again!

After my interview last April 21 (Monday) i called up DELBROS April 24 (Friday).
I got a scared of my life when the lady told me that USEM cancelled my Doc Verification,
but she doesn't know what the reasons are. So i called USEM Grace told me that there is
no such thing as (cancellation) if ever, that would be the first time that it happened.
Grace even told me that my docs request was sent to DELBROS April 15 and she asked
to wait on the line she should verify further to the employee of DELBROS inside USEM, at
that time its already close to 5pm, i don't know if Grace hang up on me since i have waited
for her for more than 30 minutes and i try to call back again but no one is answering the phone. I was restless for 2 days (Sat and Sun).

The following Monday my fiance called USEM and Grace told him to call DELBROS. I was the one
who called DELBROS i really looked for the lady whom i talked to before and she apologizes it was a miscommunication according to her....what happened is USEM sent request 2x so they cancelled the first one (April 15) and finally,,,, i was included in May 5 batch to be verified to NSO.

Why is it that when i get copies of the Documents (BC and CENOMAR) from NSO it
only takes them 1 week for BC and 2 weeks for the CENOMAR. But now, its more than 3 weeks
and NSO is not yet done with verifying those documents.

I have never post here not even replying to the posts. I am just an avid reader, a silent member but now, i cant help it and i wanted also to share my sentiments.

I know we are all PRAYING for our VISA. GOD Help US...

hmmmm...a tough question! BUT! it's harder if you've been in that situation..and hardest if that happens to you not but once but twice! that happened to me. but not with my fiance. i had not so good past relationships. i had more than my fair share. here it goes:

1st bf: we were together for 6 years, we're both med students that time. then he met a pretty med student a batch younger than us. they hit it off. sad to say he dumped me.

2nd bf: we were steady for 3 years. he's a fellow doctor, with good looks. so who wouldnt fall for him? he's a real player. during the time we're an item he would date females from all walks of life. young, old, pretty, not-so-pretty, doctor, nurse, medtechs, students..i guess he dated every single gril in our hospital. stupid as i am..i didnt give up on him. he would always promise me he'd stop womanizing. then i would forgive him..then the cycle begins and repeats itself. then one day, i found out he got 2 of his gf's pregnant. that was the end of it.

3rd bf: he's a divorcee with 3 kids from 3 different moms, 9 years my senior. so you'd say, what i was thinking by sticking with him for 2 1/2 years. i kept telling myself that i love him. then he did it again! he got another girl pregnant. hayyy.

thank God..He answered my prayer. he gave chris to me. chris taught me how to trust someone again enough to commit my future with him. i hope and pray he'll not give me heartaches anymore.. what i had was more than enough.

I wonder if the counselors really do know the practice in the USA regarding this. It seems they are confusing people with their practice of emphasizing the mother's maiden name as a middle name. To be honest, if you asked all of my ex GF's what my mother's maiden name was, I don't think any would be able to answer the question. It's not a focal point of discussion, and it's not one of the questions that many think to ask. The most common way that a gf/fiancee would know the name is if they knew the grandparents on the mother's side personally. Then they might know. So it's not really emphasized here. But it is emphasized at the seminar, so keep this in mind people! So my girl was initially upset about not having our children having her last name as their middle name. She wanted to have an american middle name, but then the filipino family name too, so that the child would have 4 names. I told her that it would be a bit strange in the US, but if she wanted it, fine. She seems to have changed her mind regarding this though. By the way, her plan is to actually change her last name to her middle name, and then take my last name. So I guess this is the standard PI practice? I think her plan is fine though, because I think it sounds better and it's the name she has been identified with the most during her life thus far.


I'm thinking about giving this link to the head of PRISM so she would know the problems most applicants encounter during the guidance and counseling. What do you think?


I think it's a good idea. My girl was confused and she was fed wrong information. The counselors really couldn't know though, because they are giving instructions on matters that they themselves never experienced. It's difficult to instruct on cultural differences without actually being experienced in USA culture.

True. My girl was upset because the CFO counselor said, "you have known him this long and you still don't know his middle name??" My girl was confused because she knew my name was Walter, but was confused as to why it wasn't Bastow. She was scared when the counselor lashed out verbally, so she just followed suit and did what they asked to satisfy the course. Yet, she and I have a great relationship and we share a lot, but I never thought to discuss how Americans derive their middle name. It never occurred to me, but it would be beneficial for everyone to know that this will likely come up during their CFO experience.


I agree, they can be very confusing. When I filled out the form for the guidance and counseling, the counselor asked me if the middle name that I put was my husband's mom's maiden name. When I said no, she asked me if I know it. I said yes and so when I told her, she made a correction and wrote it on top of my husband's real middle name. The counselors at PRISM must specify that they are asking for the fiance's/husband's mother's maiden name in place for the middle name. That way applicants won't get confused about it. I'm fortunate that my husband explained to me how the name goes here in US. Because in the Philippines, men and women use their mother's maiden name for middle name. For women, once they got married, the middle name changes to their own maiden name, drop the mother's maiden name and use the husband's last name, while for men, even if they got married, nothing changes. It's so confusing too but that's how it goes over there. After I got married, instead of dropping my mom's maiden name and use my own maiden name as my middle name (the Philippine way), I thought I'd follow how the name goes here in US, which means keeping the middle name that I have been using all my life. I didn't follow how they do it in the Philippines to make things more understandable. And besides, I'm already here in US so I better follow how they do it here. Lucky for those who have two names like Maria Cristina or Mary Anne or Christine Marie, etc... When they get here, they can just add their new last name without getting confused about the middle name.

Actually, it's funny that I'm reading this advice now... I just talked to my girl last night and she had a problem at the CFO because she wasn't certain what name was my middle name. Well, if the petitioner is US born, and he is caucasian and not of asian or other descent, I can tell you that his middle name will NOT be his mother's maiden name. The more common practice is that it's a chosen name, much like the first name. For example, my name is Jeffrey Walter Zentner. My middle name was given to me because of a great uncle who passed away many years ago. His first name was Walter. My mom was very close to him, and thus gave me his name. My mother's maiden name is Bastow, and none of my siblings have her name as a middle name. The lady instructing my girl at the CFO told my girl that my proper name is Jeffrey Walter Bastow Zentner, but she was incorrect. I think this is very common in the PI, but not in the US. Hope my answer helps.


Technically, you are right and they also know that at CFO that American's middle name is a chosen name, not your mom's maiden name. But still, they would like to know your mom's middle name. I remember, during my CFO, my counselor put my then fiance's mother's maiden name on top of his middle name. A lot of applicants had a hard time during their seminars because of not knowing their fiance's/husband's mother's maiden name that's why it's better that applicants know it.

PhilippinesAge difference between Filipinas and americans (Poll)
QUOTE (leejoy_and_ron @ May 8 2008, 03:09 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Average Age for Petitioner is 40
Average Age for Receiver is 29


Average difference is 11.3 years


Well, that is nearly the age difference between my girl and I. I just turned 40, and her 28. Don't get confused, people. She and I share the account, so sometimes you will see posts from one of us, or both, for that matter!

I don't think our age makes a difference in our case. We are deeply in love, as my girl pointed out. When I was a bit younger, I wasn't really interested in getting married as much, and wasn't really desiring children... It just wasn't my time. Entering into my late 30's, and especially with the entrance of my beautiful fiancee Margin, I started to realize what I was really missing in life. So on June 19th, our journey will begin. Soon after, Zachary Jaden will be conceived and created, hopefully. At 40 years old, I'm finally ready to be a dad. For some of us, I guess it takes a little longer to see the light :-P

I love you Margin Cariaga Zentner!!
