Hi to all VJ's!

Ma'am(s)/Sir(s)
I've been a member of this very helpful and informative site last july, I constantly visit and
read a lot of post from here which answers all my questions even without posting any.
You're such a great help.
This is my first time to post please do bear with me as I don't know where to post my
questions :blush:

I am a beneficiary of CR1 petition and I got my NOA2 approved last August 28,2009, but
unfortunately my USC husband and I had been dealing with alot of misunderstandings and
communication gap. He is not responding to my emails anymore and if he responds to my
text messages (once in a blue moon) he would replied he was so tired working 12-13
hours a day and has no time to reply. He changed a lot lately, before he's so involved in
this visa application process but now he seemed not interested anymore. I love my
husband so much and though he changed a lot it'll never be a reason for me to love him
less. I want to be reunited, live and start our family but it seem like it is impossible now to
happen. I bent backwards just to reach out to him and doing my best to save our marriage
(we're on our seventh month) but he still not responding (sorry for venting hope you'll
understand my pain).

My questions are, as I've read in here after USCIS approved my petition, they will submit
my papers at the NVC and NVC will assign a case number for me in USEmbassy Manila, is it
necessary to fill out the other documents to be submitted at NVC right away or as long as
the forms are not yet submitted I can still use the case number whenever my husband is
ready to fill them out for me?

Lastly, if things comes to worst.... my parents are naturalized USC and they would plan to
petition me instead, will the CR1 application would cause a problem in the future? (By the
way, before the CR1 application i was a recipient of F2B petition just waiting for my priority
date to be processed)

Thank you very much for reading my post any advise will be highly appreciated. Godbless
us all!

Well it sounds like your having some marital problems. If your husband does not complete the paper work for you at the NVC and you can not prove that your marriage is still real (simply being married to an American is not enough to come to the USA) then you will not be eligable for a CR-1 visa.

You can obtain a visa through your parents, however, it will take longer because you are married and presumably over 21 years old. I don't know alot about this visa so hopefully someone else can help you. Please look at this link http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/men...00048f3d6a1RCRD

It is up to your husband to pursue the visa for you. If he choose not to do it, then you cannot get a visa through your marriage to him.

The petition filed by your parents is still good IF you got married after they became US citizens. If you got married before they became US citizens, then the petition is dead as an LPR cannot petition for a married child. There is no way to revive it later after they become US citizens. If the petition is still good, you are now in the F3 category (USC petitioning for a married child). The current PD in the F3 category for the Philippines is Sept. 22, 1991.

To Peter'n'Jaime, thanks for the reply. :)

To aaron2020, Thank you for the info I really appreciated it.

My mother was LPR when she petitioned me in the year 1999 and after 3 years she filed for her citizenship. My husband's lawyer (hired to process the CR-1) asked for my NOA from my F2B petition, I believed that she requested for the termination of that said petition.

I hope to clear all options available for me because my parents will feel sad about not able to be with them anymore as I am the only daughter who left in the Philippines, all my siblings are there already. And I don't want to push my husband to work for the papers, because I did not married him for that.

Again, thank you very much!

You may want to look into a malpractice lawsuit against this lawyer if your husband ends up not petitioning for you. There was no need to withdraw this petition as a beneficiary may have more than one petition ongoing. The reasonable thing would be to withdraw it after you arrive in the US with a green card. Suing may not get you a green card, but it will at least get you some money.
