Hi Lexlee08

This is how people need to be calculated their CSPA usually do. I hope this help you.

Chào bạn !

If you live far from the embassy you can email and attach necessary documents.

Principal applicant email the US embassy and tell them that the child is qualified for CSPA. Please write your case number, petitioner's name and date of birth, principal's name and date of birth, and the CSPA child's name and date of birth. Priority date and approve date. Attach the interview letter to the email. Birth certificate of the CSPA child, passport, identification document, Approve letter from USCIS.

If the principal applicant can come to the embassy, choose the time that the embassy assign in their website to answer questions (It's from 1pm to 3pm in my country)

Bring birth certificate of the CSPA child.

Passport (principal and CSPA child)

interview letter

approval letter

and some important document

Interview letter

Cash or check to pay for the IV fee if the child is qualified

I might missing something, please correct me. This is all I know. I hope this help.

Hi Carol,

I finally got the e-mail from Manila Embassy regarding my brother's CSPA case, I was told that my mom could present my brother's case during her interview, he just needs to fill up a DS-230, bring his birth certificate, approval letter, passport and appropriate fees. My problem is still the approval letter, I have not filed it yet 'coz I based the approval date from Visagrant's Calendar(I forgot the name). I have a copy of the I-130 with notations on it but the actual approval letter I have no idea where it is. I still have not called USCIS coz things are just too hectic for me. I wonder though if we pay first before the consular officer computes his age or they compute it first and pay afterwards. $404 is not joke especially in this economy. When they do the interview are all USCIS and NVC correspondents attached to my parents file? Can the consular officer pull the I-130 approval date from their system? It seems that they make things harder than what it really is! I hope you can help me out, thanks.

Yes

Can the consular officer pull the I-130 approval date from their system?

Yes

Usually the NVC and Consular Officer have the approval petition information in their system, You can take a chance and can let me know if u did not receive the approval letter through mail...

Good Luck

Hi All,

Just an update, my mom and dad had their medical at St. Luke's today. My mom passed but my dad has to undergo the 3-day sputum tests, so they have to come back next week. My dad had Tb when he was a teenager and had a scar in his lungs, he was treated for it long time ago and has been TB-free ever since. I just hope he does not have to undergo the sputum culture dilemma(that's another 2 months of waiting!). I just knew it that this issue will come up but anyways hopefully it's all negative so he does not have to do the sputum culture. We are taking our chance on my brother, I already know that he has aged-out but maybe I'm missing something and he will go to the interview with them with all his requirements. I am really diligently praying for my family that things will work out fine as they are the only ones that are left there. Ok, hope everybody else will have good news for a change. I just find it interesting that they don't allow medical screening when people apply for B1/B2 visa and impose this "strict" medical for all other visa applicants. My dad has been here in the US multiple times with a B1/B2 visa and obviously didn't have problem entering the country but now that he is migrating this medical issue has been the biggest hurdle, just a thought, I'm not complaining!
