PhilippinesOriginal NBI, or copy ok?
QUOTE (4MYMEVE @ Apr 4 2009, 09:21 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
My fiance's original was kept by the DFA in issuing her passport. Will the photocopy pass muster at the interview?
If not, is there way to get a duplicate on-line, via the mail? It's a 3-hour bus ride for her back to the NBI in a neighboring city.

THanks for the assist.



It should be original. NBI gives you 2 copies, one for you and one for the USEM

Philippinesvisa delivery
QUOTE (scarry @ Apr 2 2009, 08:30 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
hello wonder if someone can help me my fiance lives in bislig midano area so its long trip for her to manila her interview is april 7th and we was wondering if she can pick her visa up at embassy or have it shipped to a address in manila instead of going all the way back to bislig .



Visa will be delivered to her home address through courier AIR21. You can track the visa delivery through their website: http://www.air21.com.ph/
Once approved in the interview, visa can take approximately 7-10 days but there are instances that it will take longer than that so no assurance of the timeline of visa delivery. After interview, she can go back to bislig and wait for her visa at her house. If she wants to wait it in manila, she can tell AIR21 for change of address for visa delivery.

Philippinesinterview while waiting for police clearance?
QUOTE (mahal007 @ Apr 9 2009, 08:07 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
My fiancee and her kids pass their medical, and their interview is on april 20.
The problem we have right now is shes still waiting for police clearance from macau and israel.
Can she go for her interview while waiting for police clearance?Because were not sure if she'll
get it on time.


I had the same situation back in the USEM philippines. I had my interview before my police clearance. The CO will give a white slip for the lacking requirement which is her police clearance. Once she receive her clearance, she will submit it to USEM together with her passport and the white slip and then next thing she will do is wait for her visa. Mostly, visa will be delivered approximately 2 weeks or more. See me timeline.

i love this thread..im so into make-up! can't live without it....IT'S ALL ABOUT FEELING GOOD, YOU KNOW... if you feel good and comfortable with or withour make up, i think thats what matters.Well, i make sure i feel good inside and out..Outside, as early as now, i make preparations such as, going to facial centers, body scrub and some laser hair removal hehe...When i get on the plane (hopefully)...i should never forget to wear just light make up and just do retouch from time to time.

HERE' s MY CHEKCLIST ShaneJean: ( for us make-up lovers)
and for convenience sake i will bring:
1. wet tissue instead of liquid soap to wash face and remove make-up then re-apply.
2. moisturizer of course, OLAY total effects is the best so far (i notice that you won't need toner, it automatically minimizes your pores).
3. liquid foundation
4. eyeshadow and lipstick palette by careline (different shades of lpstick and eyeshadows are all in one small case), and the eyeshadows can be used as alternative for blush on.
5. lipliner (optional)
6. eyeliner (optional)
7. face powder (san-san) hiyang ako dyan eh hehe...

THE GOLDEN RULE: too much of something is bad enough, so just make it all light to achieve a more natural look.
Know your color, shape of face, lips, and eyebrows, your cheekbone, contour of eyes.
Message me if you want some make-up tips lol



ADDITIONAL SUGGESTIONS:

USE EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL AS A MAKE-UP REMOVER, IT IS HEALTHIER AND MAKES YOUR FACE SMOOTH TOO. JUST DAB A LITTLE ON A COTTON BALL AND WIPE OUT YOUR MAKE UP SOFTLY.
FOR MAKE-UP BASE USE PRODUCT THAT HAS UVA/UVB PROTECTION LIKE NEUTROGENA. smile.gif


I do believe in the wonders of virgin coconut oil, besides i plan to buy a few and take them with me to the US because my fiance and i plan to create our own littlle spa in the house...and i think the VCO would make a good one for massage...............BUT, as a sunblock, i doubt it, oils of any kind on skin allows it to be heated up when exposed to sun.but i dont know, im not sure.

And yes, water water water...dont wait for yorself to get thirsty before drinking some.



I was suggesting extra virgin OLIVE OIL and not COCONUT OIL. Well, if it's good for you and suit your skin the go for it.

PhilippinesNo K1 Visa
QUOTE (k1couple @ Apr 11 2009, 06:19 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Maybe I'm just being a pessimist here, but what options do we have if for some reason our K1 isn't approved? If I go there and we get married, should we try for a K3? Or if we get married and I want to live there, what steps to I have to take to stay in the country?


Why do you think it will not be approved? As long as your relationship is genuine and your papers are complete there will be no problem. The visa interview is only basic questions, it's only all about you and her and your relationship. Be strong and be positive. I see your timeline "case left NVC already" she's almost on her way to the interview part. Good luck!

QUOTE (AvoidDaNoid @ Apr 11 2009, 01:47 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I heard one of the locations had a nicer staff but I can't remember which one.

Also....after her interview if she is approved should she go right away or wait for the Visa to be delivered.
The reason that I ask is that I will be there during that time and it may be helpful for me to go to the CFO with her if they let me.

Also I keep reading that she should take her NBI clearance and other forms with her. Doesn't the Embassy keep these? So she will have to get more originals or can she copy them and bring those?



She can attend CFO without her visa yet, once she get her visa she just go back to CFO and have her sticker on her passport. The CFO in Cebu, would not allow her/his partner to attend counseling. He/she will have to wait outside CFO. But I don't know the CFO in Manila if they allow the partners to go in. Counseling is all about the life here in US, where to get some help if the immigrant is in trouble, the new life in US and they will let them show a video from different women who were abused from their foreign husband (most of these women did a fake marriage just to get out of the Philippines and they were abused in the end). And after that, they will do a short interview one on one.

NBI certificate has 2 copies. One for your fiance and the other is for USEM. She can just show her copy of NBI. CFO will not keep her NBI anyway. They just need to see it. Mine was not taken.

Hi,


Is there notary services in the Philippines? I was wondering because my wife is preparing affidavits there, regarding the proof of bona-fide marriage. Is it ok to just have the witnesses and family sign the affidavits or do the have to be notarized? Hence, is there notary services in the Philippines?

Thanks much


Steve



better go to a lawyer who do notary service, that's what i did cuz some people who offer notary service even though they are in city hall are fake/fraud. there were couple of people who were caught doing this inside the city hall in manila. they do notary service and stamp it with a lawyer's signature (the person who sign the paper is not the lawyer) and then they charge you money. so tell your wife to make sure that the person who signed is a lawyer or a certified public notarian.

PhilippinesGet SATAN out of your Way...No visa yet...so what?? We can still take this wait
QUOTE (DEDixon @ Apr 7 2009, 09:25 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Filipinas are so funny. I'm amazed how much you think God is involved in every little aspect of your lives. It is okay with me, I like it. I also think it is funny when someone's visa is approved or whatever is approved, and the message is always "Thanks God!"

I was kind of jealous of God when my fiance (now wife) was going through all of this... "Thanks God" all the time and I kept thinking, but I didn't say anything, what about me, how about thank Dwayne because I'm sure God didn't introduce us, didn't put us together, didn't put me up to filing for her (you know, free will prevents this). Sometimes though, I think God did play a part, because as I think about her and I meeting, so many little things could have kept us from meeting. But, even so, I'm not really thinking that God put me on the plane for the specific purpose of meeting my fiance and future wife, but she is still thanking God (bless her heart). smile.gif

What is also funny is the way God gets a high five even when someone's visa wasn't approved..... God is excused with "everything happens for a reason."

God really has it good.... even during natural disasters when lots of people are killed, but for those that lived.... "Thanks God!" What about those that died, God gets excused again with.... "it was their time to go." Simple as that and that it is funny to me!



WHY DOES GOD ALLOW BAD THINGS TO HAPPEN TO PEOPLE?
by: Hank Hanegraaff

At first blush, it may seem as though there are as many responses as there are religions. In reality, however, there are only three basic answers, namely pantheism, philosophical naturalism, and theism. Pantheism denies the existence of good and evil because in this view god is all and all is god. Philosophical naturalism (the worldview undergirding evolutionism) supposes that everything is a function of rendom processes, thus there is no such thing as good and evil. Theism alone has a relevant response-- and only Christian theism can answer the question satisfactorily.
First, Christian theism acknowledges that God created the potential for evil because God created humans with FREEDOM OF CHOICE. We choose to love or hate, to do good or evil. the record of history bears eloquent testimony to the fact that humans of their own FREE WILL have actualized the reality of evil through such choices.
Furthermore, without choice, LOVE IS MEANINGLESS. God is neither a cosmic rapist who forces his love on people, nor a cosmic puppeteer who forces people to love him. Instead, God, the personification of love, grants us the freedom of choice. Without such freedom, we would be little more than preprogrammed robots.
Finally, the fact that God created the potential for evil by granting us FREEDOM OF CHOICE ultimately will lead to the best of all possible worlds--a world in which "there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain" (Revelation 21:4). Those who choose Christ will be redeemed from evil by his goodness and will forever be able not to sin.

I would like to ask something to you DEDixon cuz I am just curious. If you don't mind.

Do you believe that God created you? or Do you believe in evolution (Darwinian theory)?

hi guys.I just want to share to everyone what I'm going through.I am so down, upset, irritated, and nervous..I feel like I am dying and I feel like I have a fever everyday and a huge headache!!!!
..this waiting has been so hard on me:


i just want everyone to know that I just called USEM in manila..i told them my husband got an interview march4 and submitted additional documents march18.. they told me they have received the additional documents and if we haven't received anything within one month from them that is when I have to call the USEM..so ridiculous!!! we are under administrative review but we are not on an AP list....is this normal?


Once you are under administrative review you will never know when your visa will come but at least you are approved and that's the good thing. I was under administrative review too, and it took 2 weeks before I received my visa. I called customer service after 10 days since I submitted the additional requirement which is my police clearance and she said it will take 2-3 months for the review and me and my fiance (hubby now) were so depressed. But the next day I checked Delbros and it is in the releasing department. So, I advice you not to believe at customer service representative cuz they are just reading all the answers in their system and they are not even located inside the USEM premises so they really don't know what's going on with our case. So, just hold on there and keep track on AIR21 website and trust God.

So I slowly sneaked and looked for the small creature but I felt a round thing and picked it out from his palm. It was a very beautiful diamond ring and my tears just kept falling from my eyes. Then he proposed to me and surely I never had a doubt that he was the one whom God gave me. I will never forget that moment.

What do you mean by "completed"? It's kinda confusing. If you mean that NVC has approved your case already and forwarded it to USEM.....USEM will send you an instruction letter. Once you receive that letter you are eligible to set your schedule for interview. You can also call USEM to check if your case is already in their system even if you haven't received their letter yet. And if it is already in their system then you can set your schedule without the letter.

You can call NVC and asked for your MNL number but then again you can't schedule your interview yet not until your case number will show up on the USEM's system.
Goodluck smile.gif

What is the easiest way to get MNL case number? Should we wait it in the mail? Or should we call USEM in manila? or NVC? and how much time after receiving NOA2 (by email) should we wait to call

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionCan't get through USembassy's customer service 1-909-101-7878
I need help, I tried to contact 1-909-101-7878 us embassy's customer service but I can't get through. They said in their website that all can contact 1-909-101-7878 through SMART or PLDT and I tried to use my SMART phone but it didn't work. I tried to go to a pay phone PLDT but they charged me 120 pesos per minute and that is over pricing I paid 480 pesos for only 4 minutes but I haven't talked to a customer service yet. It just kept ringing and hear their automated voice response with their stupid music so I hanged up and had paid 480 pesos for nothing. Does anyone here knows any alternative ways to contact customer service? If I am in manila I could have just go to us embassy and inquire but I'm living in cebu. All I just want to ask from them is what requirement do I need to pass at window X in order for me to have a request letter from them so that I can process my police clearance in Japan. Please anyone from here who can help?

thanks,
anna

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionI NEED HELP TO ALL VJS
Hello VJs';

Me and my fiance were so happy today cuz we got the approval August 26, 2008. I have read from the USEM site that they will forward it to NVC and then forward it to Manila Embassy and let the applicant know about the medical and interview exam.

Here are my questions:

1. What will they send to me? Is this what we call "PACKET"?
2. What is the content of the Packet? Does it contain the "manila case number"?
3. How long will it take me to have it since the NOA2 was recieved? Will it take a month?


I really do appreciate to all your help.

Thank you,

AGE with Dehydration due to Ameobiasis is not a cause of concern and is not a ground for visa denial. If they asked you for previous hospitalization just tell them you had been hospitalized last July for Amoebiasis. Bring a medical certificate from your Doctor but only give it to the Panel physician when asked. You can get Amoebiasis from infected food or water and a patient can be a carrier and don't have to have the symptoms and can pass the infection to others if he/she is preparing food.
