K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresInterview Questions
I just want to share that during my interview day I met a lady in her late 30's. We had a conversation while waiting for our interview and she was so nervous because she was applying for a tourist visa more than 3 times and all those was denied and she is worry if it would be ground to her denial for a k1 visa. She was interviewed before me and when she went out to consul room she was smiling and was approved....She said she was being asked about her tourist visa and she answered it straight and honest..

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Process & ProceduresUsing CLEAR BOOK for interview
I put all my chat logs and some documents in a CLEAR BOOK. I just want to ask if Do I need to pull out all the papers that will asked from me? or I will just give the clear book since I already separated chat logs in one clear book and all supporting documents, prior meeting in person and so on in another clear book?..

PhilippinesAFFIDAVIT OF SUPPORT LACK OF SIGNATURE
Yes I agree it doesn't mean that if you pay delbros and give you pink slip you are approved... I met older man who is also applying for visa he already paid delbros but he wasn't approve yet and it was his 2nd time he went to the U.S. Embassy!

Johna you need to comply what they asked from you as soon as possible so that it wont take any longer or whatever. Even if they told you everything is Ok but remember girl I-134 is the most important document needed and show that your fiance will really support you but then he forgot to sign it. We don't know what they think. Even if you said that your fiance forgot to sign it they maybe have doubts. We don't know... I was thinking this afternoon after we talked on the phone. How come that your fiance forgot to sign the I-134?Before you can notarized I-134 your fiance should signed it first.

Is your I-134 notarized??? or maybe your fiance signed it but forgot to notarized it???

If they didn't ask for it then they didn't want it. You will probably get a text from DELBROS in a day or two. Good luck good.gif

if u get txt from delbros wat does it mean ?



If you get text from delbros its either they will update you about the visa or if the Embassy released your visa and they are ready to send it.

I think its not really martial law but they are making the curfew for the safety of our fellow filipinos. They maybe want to clear the area so that they can control the security and they are not sure enough to identify Trillanes group that are still free.

It so sad that this is happening....

I'm sure there are answers to this but I need help on this right away! My fiance is stressing to the gills about this. Someone please help me.

I have a question about this requirements list:


<< 1. Original valid passport;
2. Original and photocopy of visa;
3. One (1) 2x2 or passport-size photograph;
4. One (1) valid identification card with photograph;
5. Original and photocopy of Confirmation of Permanent Residence (for CANADA-bound emigrant);
6. Original and photocopy of Immigrant Data Summary (for USA bound emigrant);
7. Original and photocopy of the Embassy Certification of Eligibility (for Spain bound C visa holders);
8. Original and photocopy of letter of approval for Work to Residence visa (for New Zealand bound emigrants);
9. Photocopy of employment contract(for immigrant workers);
10. Duly completed registration form (downloadable at www.cfo.gov.ph);
11. Payment of P400.00 registration fee ; and
12. Attendance in the PDOS or peer counseling session;>>

What is the Immigrant Data Summary???? wacko.gif wacko.gif wacko.gif I must have missed this when I read the list the first time. Just what is this thing, how and where does she get it, and is it too late for her to get it now?

Also...."Duly completed registration form". She HAS to get this online? I thought she fills this out at the CFO?

I'm confused and stressed now. Please help. unsure.gif


Immigrant Data Summary is only for CR1/IR1 filer but if you are k3 and k1 filer you dont need to have that Immigrant Data Summary and dont worry about the registration form they will give you on the day of the seminar..


Where does your Fiancee will attend the seminar?



Thank you so much! HUGE sigh of relief here!

Well, she's attending it at Manila.

I keep hearing from everyone that Cebu is much easier with the CFO. However, that's not an option with my fiance.

So, everything should be OK?


Well, if she really wanted to have the seminar in Manila and it will be more convenient for her it would be ok!

Just want to share what are the things that I bring during my CFO seminar aside from passport and visa..

PHOTO COPY OF DIVORCE DECREE

PICTURE'S OF MY FIANCE AND ME

LETTER OF INTENT

PHOTO COPY OF MY FIANCE's BIRTH CERTIFICATE

Before I went to the seminar I called them and asking them what to bring and the guy said just bring all the papers that was left from the interview..

PhilippinesCFO QUESTION
Yes! The visa is in sticked to the passport...

Regarding about first come first serve basis... Actually Johna and I attended the seminar together. what she meant about is that you have to come there early because only 15 people are allowed to attend the seminar. Like in St. Mary's in Cebu we went there early around 7:30am but the seminar started around 10:00am but when we go there we wrote our name in the paper that they put on the door as our attendance and they will call your name as they let you in and by giving your form....

Its not that long our seminar starts 10:00am but we were done around 2:00pm and done with our CFO stamped before 3:00pm

Good luck!!

I heard from a friend that one of her co-passenger from bacolod was put on hold at the U.S. immigration because of x-ray and medical result..

I wonder why she was put on hold because of her x-ray and medical result, I thought if SLEC will released your x-ray and doesn't say anything or doesn't let you back to check you again it means that you are fine and nothing wrong with your medical. Am I right???


Anybody here who got the visa then travel to U.S. and was being deported because the U.S. Immigration found out that there is something wrong with your x-ray or medical result????very confusing...arggg


I wonder if she had the information with her. It doesn't seem like a visa would have been issued had there been a problem. SEMC gives the xray to the beneficiary after the medical and it should be taken to the U.S. in case there's a question.



Thats what I've been thinking if you have a problem with your medical you should know it after your medical was done and U.S. Embassy should not issue a visa for you since you failed with your medical its useless if they issued you visa and you didn't pass the medical.

Jessel, upto now, its still with the embassy. I called yesterday, Grace said its still with the consul under review and he's on leave right now. I'll have to check with them again by next week. GRrrrrrrr so much waiting, sucks! I'm the only one left behind!!! sad.gif
