Good morning everyone. I need advise on how to get married in the Philippines.

Here's what I have had done in the past.

Met My fiance on July 26, 2007 (I.E.) she is Filipino working in Hong Kong.

Went to Hong Kong on 03/05/2010 thru 03/16/2010.

1. applied for a K-1 fiance visa 07/07/2010.

2. Fiance had interview in Hong kong on 03/05/2010.

3. suspended under adminastrative review because because of income (which was B/S).

4. Got Co-Sponsor on 05/2010, enough assets for co-sponsor (approx 1 million $ in assets).

5 Fiance had 2nd interview on 09/09/2010.

6. Visa petition sent back to USCIS 09/24/2010 due to section (221)g as we have failed to established a bona fide relationship even tho we had documented approx 223 pages of phone records.

Now what we plan to do is marry in the philippinesa in June of next year and our question is:

1. Is the process approximatly the same as a k-1 procedure after we marry?

2. After we marry in the Philippines, she has to go back to work in Hong Kong so will she have an interview in Manila because we married there?

3. What can be done as not to have any of this happen again.

Note: I have CML (Cronic Myelogenous Leukemia) Which is treatable with meds for a very long time, which I feel is one reason they denied the petition to begin with as my income is

well above the poverty guidlines

You will have to demonstrate a bona fide relationship. Whatever weaknesses in your case, be sure to address them. The K1 file will be a part of the CR1 file.

The CR1 interview can take place in Hong Kong.

1. yes very similar but usually takse a little longer.

2. no, she can have the interview in HK.

3. focus your evidences on what's required. phonecalls alone don' do it. do not submit if your papers are incomplete. check every form, every answer. organize your application and remember, the interview w/your fiancee is a confirmation of all info you submitted so if all your docs are in place, it will come down to how she answers the CO's questions (could be why she got denied the K1) make sure she knows all she needs to know about you, your family, work, your plans etc)

good luck and god bless! :)

Thanks. Do you think when I fly to HK then to the philippines in July would it be advisable to go to the U.S Embassy in Hong Kong and have a talk with them?
