Can my american husband file a K3 visa application for me while in the Philippines?

Yes, file the I-130 first then the I129f.

Read the guides.

Where is he taking up residence? In the U.S. or on the Philippines?

If he has been living in the Philippines for at least 6 months, then you may qualify for Direct Consular Filing (DCF). This means that instead of filing the initial I-130 petition to a designated Chicago Lockbox, your U.S. Citizen husband may file the I-130 petition at the USCIS office here in the Philippines (which is located at the U.S. Embassy).

If your husband is residing in the U.S., then he must submit the I-130 and its supporting documents at the designated Chicago Lockbox depending on which state is from.

Click on the Guides (one of the links at the top of the window) and read about the K3 process, DCF, and IR-1.

Just note however, that if the I-130 petition is filed under DCF, your spouse still has to prove intent to reside with you in the U.S. (or establish domicile).

Be smart, have a plan, and hang on to the people you love. - Chris Gardner
