@jmari:

Good luck to your parents interview on thursday.Don't worry,Interview by consul is just easy as 1,2,3.My parents done their interview last 21 December

2009.Basis questions like what is your petitioner's work,place they travel outside the country and pictures of them together.

It won't last 15 minutes.

My parents will be leaving the country by 22 January 2010 bound MLA-LAX. :dance:

thanks! :)

Hello!

I just want to let you know that my Mother got her interviewed done yesterday and got approved!! It was 0830 in the morning and she said that the consul was so nice to him and he asked few questions like what's the petitioner's job, where do you intended to live in the US? If do we have a child/children? What's my husband's name and job? So we're so happy that it's done, finally! Thank you all!

They've submitted the additional requirements so we're still waiting. So where did they registered at? Only in CFO Manila (Citigold)? That's good if immigrants won't attend seminars and just register themselves like you've said..

Hi!!

Congratulations for the success of the petition for your Parents.. :) it's all worth the effort. I hope I'll do the same someday. I have a question regarding this.. Since I'm currently in Conditional PR status and will have my 10-year LPR next year (June 2011), you think I'm eligible to petition my parents? I have heard it would work but may take long. And it's much preferrable if I have the US Citizenship..I'll apparently become USC in 3 yrs (2012).. Anyone who can suggest something Which is much better? Thank you. :D

You can only petition your parents if you are a US citizen. As a green card holder, only your spuse and your children can be petitioned.

My rfe was on the DS230 residence gap, Police clearance and the BC's/MC of my parents. I sent back DS230 form completed, mom's new police clearance and their original BC & MC fr NSO. Btw, do you know how much the delivery fees (air21) for visa after approval?

What was wrong with their police clearance? Do they need to submit both local police and NBI clearance?
