Yes, thanks for that input Rebel, Lorna is going to use her brothers employers business address for delivery.

So just to summarize in a nutshell: All birth, death, marriage and divorce documents need to be certified/notarized and probably be good idea to have three each for the Filipina. The reason being they will keep one at interview, one for AOS application and one for personal records. We are so glad about this discussion cause we only had one she was getting ready to come to USA without the documents she needed for AOS.

Just a note: I was reading the I 134 towards the bottom where it says "I derive annual income of (if self-employed, I have attached a copy of my last income tax return or report of comercial rating concern which 'I certify to be true and correctto the best of my knowledge and belief". Thank you

So it does seem that the I 134 which is 'notarized' has a language that does certify contents of the income tax return to be a correct that is witnessed by a notary.

Robert & Lorna

Hi goldwing777,

As my fiancee did the form I-134 is the one being notarized and attached a xerox copy of ITR, W2 payslip and others ... but u must send it to ur fiancee the original so if she was been asked she cud showed it. Well before u make it notarized, personnel from notary will check ur form you filled just to make sure u really had an annual income of such amount, based in ur payslip and ITR or other financial documents to attached with. If its comes in same wavelength they will finalize it and notarize it. will tell u if theres discrepancy shows.

goodluck

Maybe not the right forum for this but this is for the Philippines. I hope you guys have been keeping up on the "State of Emergency" in the Philippines. Pretty sad stuff happening and I feel bad for the citizen that have to go thru this. Of course i'm concerned about my fiancee too B) I fear if it gets much worse the effect on the visa process and the flow of government agencies, Manila seems to be a mess and i'm am actually thankful that my Fiancee isn't there this weekend for what would have been our interview date. I guess God is in control after all. :D

Anyways, not trying to be depressing but i thought people should know what's going on in Manila if they haven't heard already. The control the President has on the country now would be a scary thing for me if that happened in the U.S. Reminds me of the Marcos dictatorship. I hope all you ladies in the Philippines keep safe and hope it doesn't effect your visa process. :thumbs: Here is a few links you want to read the latest: http://news.inq7.net/index/index.php

heya wind,

Well its not fully coup , but theres a coup plot since everyone is against presidnet now bcos of her voting bruhahaha conspiracy and the flactuation of markets righ now. and 12% tax is a "muchos" punishment for those who cant avail it.

I was one of the witnesses happened yesterday its more a celebration of the EDSA revolution, they gathered here right infront of the condo im renting for now, bcos i am expecting my fiance to come before my interview. Government cant stop it, weres the so-called freedom of speech, but the president is all control now.

For everyone's sake regarding processing of this visa's, it will be affected "only" if the US government will come in between surely .... that will might affect in terms of slowing the process, because it did before. :crying: Hopefully US there if ever come in between, the embassy shouldnt be come in between. tsk tsk but still we cant stop them... its their way of life ...... anyone can come in between only to be given some so called glance or being talk about with. :lol: just to make their names so popular.

But.... i doubt it .. t will be US embassy problems if they will take this processing for granted becos it means alot of burden to them tpo adjust everything they should accomplished with their workloads.

regards to everyone!

Hi everybody,

I'm a little late to the discussion but I just wanted to chime in and give all that are waiting a little encouragement. We finally received notice of our K-1 interview date (Mar 22, 2006). There's no less than fifty-eight K-1 and K-3 interviews scheduled for that day. She never received a packet 3 and I'm still not sure what's supposed to be in that. The letter in the packet 4 was dated Jan 26 but it took about 3 weeks for my fiancee Dez to receive it. I kind of wish I had done more research on the requirements for the interview but I didn't think the interview was going to come this soon. I've been pretty stressed out and in the dark this whole time and we have a little 7 month old baby and her first son to take care of too so I've been worried almost to the point of insanity everyday. Thank goodness baby already has US citizenship and an SSN. His passport has his 1 month old baby picture it, how cute. :D

Just a word of advice: get your required documents as soon as possible, don't wait. Dez worked for 2 years in UAE which is where we met. She needs to get a police certificate from UAE but the information on how to do this is scarce. The UAE embassy doesn't readily facilitate obtaining police certificates from outside of the country, but I've read that this is possible. So now I'm paying to send her back to Abu Dhabi to get one in person. As you might guess, it's not easy for Filipinos to get tourist visas to UAE! On top of that her father sadly passed away last week and I'm sending her home for the funeral. So she's got to fly home, then fly to UAE, make it back for the medical and the embassy interview, all in less than one month. And there's no guarantee that the AD police can provide this certificate in the time she will be there. If you think you've got problems, just remember me, and stay on the path you've chosen.

Good luck and cheers!

I am glad (i mean sorry) that someone else is experience difficulty with apolice certificate because it has been a little hard to figure it out. but you DO NOT NEED to send your fiance to UAE. You see my fiancee worked in Kuwait for 4 years and much like your fianccee she must be physically present to obtain a police certificate. In fact according to the DSL-1083 form which is in the packet noth UAE and Kuwait are on the list of "must be present to obtain police certificate" here is a pasting of the full list:

Do not attempt to obtain police certificates covering residence in any of the following countries as they are not available:

Afghanistan* Iran* Saudi Arabia*

Angola* Iraq* Sierra Leone

Azerbaijan* Jordan Somalia*

Bangladesh* Kazakhstan Sri Lanka

Bulgaria* Laos* Sudan

Cambodia* Liberia Syria*

Chad* Libya Tajikistan

Colombia* Malaysia* Tanzania

Costa Rica* Mexico Thailand*

Equatorial Guinea* Moldova Turkey*

Ghana Mongolia United States of America

Guatemala* Nepal* Uzbekistan*

Haiti* Nicaragua* Venezuela*

Honduras* North Korea Vietnam

Indonesia Pakistan*

Police Certificates from the following countries are only available to people physically present in the country who apply in person:

Belarus Kuwait* United Arab Emirates

Brazil Paraguay Ukraine

Chile Lebanon* Yemen

Comores Rwanda*

Ethiopia Suriname

In fact for the reciprocity list at http://travel.state.gov/visa/reciprocity/index.htm says that a person must be a resiedent of kuwait to apply for a police certificate, which would be immposible for my fiancee to get. But anyway you and I are in the same boat. I called the NVC and asked them about it , in fact i called twice and both people told me that the embassy should take the fact that they must be physically present into consideration. Of course i realize this is manila so perhaps commonsense wouldn't prevail. I have emailed them a couple fo times but with no response and have called their call center twice for various things but have also asked them about this situation. They said that they did understand what i am saying and that the embassy would understand that but that they couldn't speak for the embassy official.

OK so far i am knocking myhself out just to get an answer to wheither or not i can stop worrying about this stupid police certificate. The vitual embassy in Davoa hosted a chat session and after asking the question for an hour i finally got an answer fromt he embassy. here it is:

Administrator - kansas_city_usc - if my philippines fiance worked in a foreign country for over 6 months, but cannot get a police certificate from there because it is on the list of places where "a person must be physically present to recieve police certificate" then will the manila embassy still require that police certificate, even thought it is impossible for her to get?

Consulate - Kansas City – Police clearances are not required from countries from which they are not available. Information on individual countries is available from travel.state.gov/visa/reciprocity/index.htm

also they haven't put up the chat archive for that date yet (it was feb 8th this year) but it should be up soon and at this site, thay said they are usually posted 3 weeks afterwards. but of course i copied the session

http://www.usvirtualconsulatedavao.org.ph/chat_archives.asp

I think that is pretty clear that a police certificate won't be neccessary for us, but i am going to write the kuwait embassy and ask them if they would send me a letter stating that my fiancee simply cannot get a police certificate from their country. But i think once the chat archive is posted that you can jsut print out he chat log and give it and the website to your fiance if the officer asks for a police certificate from UAE.

But really i think we should work together to put this question to rest once and for all. perhaps we can try to get through to the embassy on the phone or email them enough until we get a response, because i don't want to worry about this at all. Right now my worry level is at about 1 percent, very low, but i don't want even that 1 percent.

Let me know and we can hopefully figure something out so we don't have to worry , and you don't have to pay for an uneccessary flight, if she can even get out of the country to start with.

Hi folks,I am new here & would like some advice.

Our Petition has been excepted for a K-1 Visa and it will be a couple of months before it will be sent to manila NOA2 , yesterday I was looking at the Petition & noticed on the I 129F my fiancee`s 13 yr old sons bithdate ( he is not a party to the Petition ) was wrong . Also on the G235A , I think I might have not signed it.

What should I do ? or can do ?, we are NOA1 waiting for NOA2

contact them now before it goes to manila ( some kind of form to use or hand written letter ),

waite 2 see if they find it & notify me ( delay`s )

waite until it gets to manila & have Fiancee give them a letter with the corrections, if asked.

have fiancee give to the interviewer along with her folder & explain the problems ( maybe avoide being put on AR )

should these corrections be Notrized ?

other ??

thanks for your replys

lar

the call center in manila is a complete joke and a waste of 18 dollars :angry: i just called up to find out why after 18 faxs they still cant update yove's address. not only are they clueless as to why. they didnt even know that her interview was april 18th , and were amazed that i could get that information without goin through them. (you can call the state dept There number is 202 663 1225 press1 then 0 then 0. )

Yes the call center is a complete joke. What a waste of 18 dollars. I really feel so stupid for having spent it believing that i could get real answers from it. But i guess if you really have no idea what to do then their basic information may help.

I was talking to my friend whose fiance is getting medical on 17th of March. He had a really hard time getting to the embassy and when he finally had a conversation today , they told him they 'would not' accept form 1040 tax return for 2005 until July?

I just want to ask anybody if this can be confirmed or denied?

To me this does not make sense? Seems like they would want the current and most recent tax return?

If this is true I will have to redo my affidavit of support and put in the income from my 2004 tax return.
