By the way,make sure your hubby will send you proof of his domicile in the U.S. like his mortgage,credit card bill,military records,school transcripts,tax returns,W-2's for 5 years or 2 before your daughter was born.Importante yang domicile sis kc tlgang binibilang nila.I submitted my hubby's military records,tax returns pati yung mga luma na at yung employment records nya old and current at old and current passport nya,college transcripts,GED,social security earnings,voter's card,old pay stubs.

Pag kumpleto mo yan..smooth lng CRBA ni baby girl mo at ma-approve agad yan.Kung may pic ka ni hubby mo nung bata pa sya na hawig ni baby nyo..dalhin mo sa appointment makakatulong din yun pra wala DNA test...or submit more proofs ng relationship nyo pra ma-satisfy mo consul.

Good luck and sana mapunta kayo sa mabait na consul

Thanks so much bluemist! Sana nga smooth lng... Anyway, nainterview na kmi Last April 29. I don't know if they will still schedule us for another interview since marami pa sila hanap na documents especially nga physical presence ng husband ko sa states for five years. Anyway, Nasubmit ko na lahat un additional requirements na hinahanap nila via courier and hopefully by this time they reviewed it na. Sabi kasi sa akin nun pre-screener dun sa ACS kahit un military records lng daw ng husband ko present ko just to prove that he's in the US for five years before our daughter's birth and of course un old passports and current passports nya. Plus i submitted also proof of our relationship before our daughter's conception. But basically more on pictures lng meron ako, emails and letters at saka un notarized passport nya nung time na nandito sya when i got pregnant. Wala na ksi un ticket nya before or even itenerary nya. You think consul will be satisfied with that? (sana naman...) Also i submitted all my pre-natal records as well as hospital receipts/bills. Sana nga smooth na lng lahat... Im worried na kasi... So much on delays na kami. We have to be in the US before my husband's deployment in July.

Thanks again bluemist. I'll let you know if we have any updates with our application.

helo..ask ko lng sana nung pinick up ba ng fedex ung crba applicaiton ng baby mo sinama mo na ba ung mga lahat ng requirements na kailangan nila o dadalhin mo ung mga requirements sa interview ng baby mo?

Hi! Yup. lahat ng documents na kailangan pinadala ko. Kasi they have to review first all the documents before ka nila schedule for appointment/interview.

Hi fellow Mamas! Belated Happy Mother’s day! Sweetlj, we’re on the same boat. I had my interview already but they asked me to submit required documents which happens to be our son's CRBA completed and submit a copy of it before releasing my visa. We just finished gathering all supplemental documents and proofs for our son’s CRBA application. I would just like to ask about submission of the CRBA package kasi sa USEM ko nakuha yong mga forms pagkatapos ng interview ko sa consul, she instructed me to proceed to ACS unit. Yung taga-ACS, he gave me the CRBA forms, did you drop off in person the CRBA application package or did you call AIR 21 for pick-up and have them deliver it to ACS-USEM instead?

Hi! Thanks so much. you mean hindi ko na kailangan pumunta sa BI for her exit permit since she have her Phil passport already? I just show her both passports to immigration lng? tama ba?

[weluvourlittleman 0]

One more question sis, when they schedule the appointment, are they going to send us an email confirmation or a letter to present at the embassy gate to enter USEM on the day of the interview appointment?

Hi weluvourlittleman! What i did is... When the consul said that my daughter has claim for citizenship I went to ACS right away. Then ACS gave me two application forms. One is DS 2029 which is the application for CRBA and the other one is DS 11 which is for the application for US passport. Fill up mo un DS 11 and consent from your husband if he's in the states. Yung CRBA naman... let your husband fill it out and notarized it. Important dyan is yun physical presence ng husband mo sa US five years before your child's birth. What I did naman for that application forms... I called the ACS sabi nila i can submit those forms personally. So I did. But, when I'm in the USEM-ACS section they cannot accommodate me right away cause those who have schedule for interview is their prioritized. It takes the whole day at the ACS bago kami natapos and interivew. So advise ko sayo, call their courier to pick up your applications and documents so that they can schedule you for appointment/interview for your son. (Just to avoid what happened to us there...) Also, complete all the documents needed to avoid delays... (learned from my experience). PM me if you have more questions. Goodluck!

I think they are going to call you for your appointment/interview once they received and reviewed your application na. Call Fedex na para they can schedule you ahead of time.

Hi! Thanks so much. you mean hindi ko na kailangan pumunta sa BI for her exit permit since she have her Phil passport already? I just show her both passports to immigration lng? tama ba?

One more question sis, when they schedule the appointment, are they going to send us an email confirmation or a letter to present at the embassy gate to enter USEM on the day of the interview appointment?

They won't give you confirmation letter or appointment letter..they will call you via phone pra ibigay yung appointment date and time then sabihin mo lng sa guard na pupunta kayo sa ACS for your child's CRBA appointment..dala ka ID mo for entrance.

Good luck!!!!
