Visa and CRBA

[sweetlj 0]

Good day to all my fellow VJ'ers!

Almost two weeks since my daughter's application for US passport and CRBA been approved and still we didn't receive her US passport and CRBA cert yet. Although, the consul said that it takes 2-3 weeks for us to receive it. Now it's turning to our third week... hopefully we receive it by this week. Based on what I read here regarding CRBA, everyone else they receive their child's CRBA in just exactly two weeks. Anyway, we're still waiting until this week.

One more thing... with regards to my visa. I'd just submitted last week June 1st my additional requirement which is marriage index. They said that the consul will review again my case since my daughter is also included in my petition, but then again she happened to be a USC already. They're asking me for a copy of my daughter's CRBA and I said that I don't receive the certificate yet. ACS told me that they forwarded already the copy of my daughter's CRBA to the Immigrant Visa Unit. Last Friday, my husband called US embassy to followup my visa and the girl that she had talk with said that still with the consul for review and it takes more or less 2 weeks.

This really take too long for them to review my application? *sigh*

Does anyone here experience like our case? especially with regards to issuing the visa?

Normally how long does it take before i get my visa since we are requested to submit additional requirement?

I just hope this won't take long. We're run out of time. We have leave PI as soon as possible or at least within this month before my husband's deployment next month.

Please help me to pray to receive my visa and my daughter's US passport/CRBA as soon as possible. *hopeless*sigh*

Thanks for reading my post. Your comments are appreciated. God Bless us all!

Good afternoon, sis! I just read your post after sending you an email. I was asking if you already receive your baby's US Passport and your visa. Hope you will get it soon. Our baby's appointment is on July. We were hoping it would be sometime this month so things are completed before hubby arrives to get us. With the schedule ACS gave us looks like hubby will be here by then to attend our baby's CRBA.

Just have faith that you'll get your visa and baby's US Passport soon so you can fly to the US before your hubby's deployment. God bless!

Hi,hndi ka made-deny sa K1 mo..sasabhin lng nila na tapusin ang CRBA ng baby mo then pag ok na,bigay mo copy ng CRBA ng baby mo then i-print na nila K1 visa mo and wait mo na lng i-deliver sa house mo.

About sa forms,kailangan i-order mo tlga un kc pag deliver ng FedEx may barcode na ksama dun sa envelope,name ng anak mo nklgay dun..importante yung barcode na yun.Pero if I were you tawag ka sa ACS-FedEx,ask mo kung pwede i-download na lng at i-print then saka ka na lng tawag sa knila for pick-up.

Eto ang number: 02 879 4747.Hndi mo rin pwede i-mail..kc cla tlga ang magpi-pick up nun kc may barcode sticker ang bawat applicant.Tatawagan mo tlga ang ACS-FedEx for pick up.Madali lng nman,pag kumpleto na yung CRBA application package tawagan mo lng cla then sabihin nila sayo na pick up nila kinabukasan,yung iba nman same day nung tumawag cla.

Attend ka ng interview mo sa June 15,interbyuhin ka pa din,di ka made-deny..sbhin lng sau na tapusin ang CRBA then pag ok na balik ka sa knila at ipakita mo yung CRBA certificate at US passport then i-print na nila visa mo.

Hindi ka nila i-deny. Ipapaacomplish lng muna nila sayo yung crba ng baby mo. Tapos kapag okay na ang lahat at nareceive mo na rin un crba ng baby mo babalik sa Immigrant visa unit para submit sa knila un copy... then wait ka na lng ng visa mo like me. Tawagan mo na ACS-Fedex para deliver na nila form sayo at para masubmit mo na rin agad un mga requirements na kailangan. Attend ka visa interview mo. Hindi ka naman madedeny. Hold lng muna nila un visa mo kasi nga meron ka pending application for your child's crba. Go na girl.

Kapag nareceive na nila un package ng baby mo. 2-3 days tatawagan ka na ng ACS para sa interview schedule nyo. Then kapag approve na un application ng baby mo sa citizenship, 2-3 weeks papadala na nila un certificate ng CRBA and passport tapos present mo un copy ng certificate sa Immigrant Visa Unit para release na nila un visa mo.

Pwede mo download un DS2029. ok lng un. Ganun din ang ginawa ko.

Depende...yung iba 1 to 2weeks bago tawagan.Sa anak ko kc tumawag cla sken kinabukasan nung na-received ng ACS CRBA package.Tignan mo yung link ng CRBA ng anak ko sa baba ng pics "Aeisha's CRBA Journey".

Pag approve yung anak mo sa CRBA appointment,sasabihin sayo ng consul na mareceive mo CRBA and US passport in 1 or 2weeks.Download mo na lng yung DS-2029 tpos make sure na hndi kna uli magkakamali pra maisubmit nyo na.Kala ko kc hndi ka pa tumawag sa FedEx,nag-order kna pala,so nagkamali ka lng sa isang form,ok lng na magdownload ka at i-print mo na lng,ok na yun.

Good luck sa CRBA ng anak mo,Wag ka kabahan kc pag pinakita mo na kinakabahan ka lalo ka nila tadtarin ng tanong.Smile ka lng kahit kabado ka at magdasal ka lng and bring rosary.Kmi nga ng anak ko dumaan pa sa Ermita Shrine nun yung malapit sa Bay View Park Hotel,nagdasal muna ako tpos ayun deretso na sa US Embassy.Tpos keep fingers crossed lng.

Parang K1 lng ang questions..ask lng nila kung san at kelan kayo nagkakilala,ano work nya,ano work mo,mga tungkol lng sa relationship nyo ang questions.Ganon lng,kaya wag ka kabahan.

Yup she is US citizen and she's automatic dual-citizen too.all you need to do is get her a Phil.passport.

About ur question,you only need to include kids in the petition if u have kids from previous/past relationship.But if ur child is US citizen,no need na kc US citizen na.US citizen child/children don't need a visa to go to US.

[bluemist 0]

U mention that you have 2 kids including ur daughter who's going to have CRBA.How about ur other kid...is he/she USC already?If not,you need to inlude him/her on the petition as K4 if you will go to K3 route.

Good Luck!!!

Oh ok tnx on ur answers, yes i have son from my previous relationship and we already included him to the K3/K4 petition, wht if we go to CR1 route do i have to file for his 130 petition ? My daughter already have phil passport, and now im working for this CRBA, does my daughter need CRBA b4 going to US? or i can do it to US na lng?
