If you and your father meet the required income guidelines, there's no problem with her being approved for a K-1 visa on that aspect. You would probably be best served asking this question in the "Philippines Forum" of this site about the Manila embassy. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...mp;s=&f=129 Good luck!

I've no idea where K1s not being able to use a co sponsor for the Philippiines came from.

K1s do so ALL the time without problems.

At least with having a co sponsor.

beckypua,

It comes from the many reports of people whose proposed sponsors were not accepted by the consulate in Manilla even though the proposed sponsors met the income requirements.

Another requirement of sponsorship is that the consular officer must feel comfortable that a proposed sponsor will actually provide the promised support. Since an I-134 affidavit is not legally enforcable one must depend on the good faith of the affiant to actually put up the money if the visa applicant should need it. The anecdotal evidence is that consular officers in Manilla take this requirement seriously.
