Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)	cenomar and birth cert resubmital?	Wally, so 12 days have passed since the embassy received the documents they requested, and still no visa.. when should i start to worry? just how long do we wait? the noa#2 has a expire date on it, and that is coming next month.., I just really dont understand this new process or whatever it is, i called my immigration lawyer, and he said many of his other clients are calling asking about the same thing.. he inquired to the embassy about this.. and he was told nothing.. SO WHAT IS GOING ON? Has anyone on this site heard of this? what is the waiting time frame till she should get a visa? is there anyway to get a update on her case status? just lost, and confused about what is going on.. and how long i should wait till i should worry... thanks jamie	jamiew	Male	Philippines	2012-02-07 20:45:00
Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)	cenomar and birth cert resubmital?	Wally, Fiancee didnt get a 221(g) form. just a slip telling her how to resubmit nso documents to embassy. she called 2go service today, and her name wasnt with the list of releases. but they told her the list is updated everyday at 4pm, tried using the tracking service, it says it needs a 9 digit number... and mnl case number is 10 numbers.. so??? well i will try to figure out somehow to keep my mind from thinking the worst.. just somehow wish she had been told a yes. wonder how long this should take? only been 3 days since embassy got the cenomar and b/c they asked for.. so maybe next week, but how long should we wait before we need to worry? thanks. jamie	jamiew	Male	Philippines	2012-01-25 20:27:00
Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)	cenomar and birth cert resubmital?	Thanks so much for the info... Not sure if she was given a 221g form or not, will ask. Her english isnt that great, she had to have a interpter help during consular interview, hope that didnt throw up a red flag. The consular seemed interested alot about how we talked.(she assured him we chat everyday) But the embassy recieved the new forms on friday jan, 20th 2012. Office was closed monday for holiday.. A friend who works for the immigration office said 2 filipinas week before were caught passing off fake documents. 1 filipina was trying to be her sister..( she was arrested before, but sister was clean) .. The nso office even had a special line labeled for people coming from embassy to resubmit these documents. All my fiance told me was that the consular said " you need to go to NSO to resubmit ur cenomar, and birth cert. after we recieve them we will release ur visa" so... guess once again i play the waiting game. thanks jamie & lea	jamiew	Male	Philippines	2012-01-25 09:00:00
Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)	cenomar and birth cert resubmital?	hello.i will have my interview on jan.30 at us embassy manila.i just want to ask how old was your fiancee's CENOMAR when she showed it to the interviewer? was it more than 6 months ago?thanks. No, her documents were all less then a week old, we timed it so everything would be current. she told me that every girl in front of her had to go to nso to do this.. keep thinking that it was because a friend told me 2 filipinas were caught trying to pass off fake documents. one girl was impersonating her sister.	jamiew	Male	Philippines	2012-01-25 08:47:00
Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)	cenomar and birth cert resubmital?	Hello, Fiancee had her embassy interview on january 17th, at philippine embassy in manila. Things all went well, then at the end instead of hearing congrats ur approved, she was was asked to go to the NSO to resubmit her cenomar, and birth certifacate.. When she got there, she filled out forms, paid fees, and was told to wait 3 days and call back the NSO. she called and they told her the consulate had recieved the forms. So what now? they kept her passport, so is this a good thing? On the embassy website we found a number to call and when she did it was just always busy.. so my question is? why did they ask for this? She said about 20 other girls had to do this also.. Another lady at embassy said this was being done cause of a paperwork scam by filipinas..?? So has she gotten a visa? how long should we wait till we should worry? should she keep trying to call? is there another way to find out if she got one? Just wondering why the new procedure? thanks so much, jamie	jamiew	Male	Philippines	2012-01-25 00:34:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	confused over this? letter from petitioner wanting to pursue petition approval?	hi jamiew, im just curious how did the embassy know you or her chatted with others? is she the one they are referring to or you, specifically? did she admit that on her interview or they do background checks? THe letter i recieved was pretty vague about who they accused of chatting with whom..but my immigration lawyer believes they meant she was chatting with another..since as an american i am the only one with rights during this process.. but its funny, cause they said "4 months" well we both chatted with many others for the first couple months to see who was the best fit.. so who cares if one of us was chatting another..silly to ask if i still want to pursue the petition approval, since i was the one to pay all the fees, for medical and embassy interviews, plus pay for hotel... OF COURSE I WANT PETITION APPROVED... we have only waited 1 yr... dang.. so silly..	jamiew	Male	Philippines	2012-02-21 16:10:00

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & Procedures	confused over this? letter from petitioner wanting to pursue petition approval?	Hello, So on the 10th of this month i recieved a letter from the embassy saying that they needed the following documents to conclude the k-1 visa petition.. x others: Letter from petitioner stating that they wish to pursue the petition approval depite having chatted with other for 4 months. Well i thought this was so odd, and funny.. since i know that my fiance chatted others in the begining till she knew i was serious.. and funny since we both shared all friends on both facebook and yahoo.. so we both were fully aware of the others chatting habits.. Needless to say , i wrote a statement letter saying i still wanted to pursue the patition and intended to marry her within 90 days of her arrival in USA. the embassy recieved this "notarized statement" ( i decided to get it notarized to make it offical) on the 14th of feb. so.. What timeframe am i looking at now for my fiance to get visa? her interview was jan 17th. when the made her resubmitt her cenomar, and birth cert... then the letter i recieved was dated jan 31. so, If this letter only asked for 1 item, to conclude the petition, and i sent the asked for item, then whats next? i so dearly miss my fiancee as next wensday makes it 1 year since i seen her. and all this stuff seems so odd to me.. nobody i have contacted has had this asked of them so... any help from anyone is grateful.. we just want tis to come to pass, and soon i pray.. thanks so much jamie & lea	jamiew	Male	Philippines	2012-02-20 20:44:00
