F2A from Philippines

[guardianrey 0]

Good Day to all!

My PD is September 22, 2010. Current PD is June 01, 2010. I think mine will become current minimum of 2 months and maximum of 4 months. I really want to spend christmas time with my family. Im planning to file for tourist visa. What are your thoughts? Thanks!

Have you heard of cases wherein their PD is near then they applied for tourist visa and got approved?

nung iniinterview ako ng filipino screener.. pinasagutan uli ung DS-230 form ko because there's a lot of blanks .... so i put NA in all blanks .. then she ask me if my age, tel no., are upated and i said no.. she erase it with liquid correction and i replaced my current age and phone number, and i volunteer, that my address of my petitioner , hindi na ung address na yon at bago na.. so i replace it their current address, then she updated it on computer..

I only have one question... bat ung natanggap ko na ung VISA ko.. and nakalagay dun sa immigrant data summary na still ung old address of my petioner ung nakalagay dun and not the new ONE??

hindi kaya ako magkaproblem sa US port of entry just asking guys

It will all depend on the Border Patrol,

most likely, he will ask you if you will be staying in that old address,

in your case dahil lumipat ng address ang petitioner mo,

just give him the new address, its not a big deal,...

Congratulations,...

Research mo sa website ng USCIS (yata) merong form ito. This is very important lalo na nasa US ka.

One page lang ito.

Meron kasi official form for change of address in the US so malamang di naupdate yung new address ng petitioner mo. Malamang Tatanungin yan sa port of entry mo kung saan ka tutuloy. Hingin mo na agad sa petitioner mo yung copya niya nung nagchange or any evidence of new address para may mapakita ka sa POE. Halimbawa yung utility bills and copy of drivers licence indicating the new address of your petitioner.

Yung corrected ds230 mo ay nasa loob ng yellow packet na dadalhin mo so pag tinanong yung new address ang sasabihin mo. Yun lang baka hihingi ng proof of new address at mga ito nga ang puede mo ipakita.

Hi All!

I just wanted to inform everyone that today I had my interview. Today is exactly the same day I met my wife 8 years ago. And today the US Consul said "Congratulations your visa has been approved, you may now join your wife in the States."

To all F2As keep praying and be patient. You will be with your lovedones in His time.

Good PM kabayan ask ko lang sana my makasagot po sa akin thanks in advance,,,

My daughter ako 2 yrs old and 7 months baby ko nag karoon sya ng TB nung 6 months pa lang sya tapos uminom sya ng med

for 6 months "treatment" then nung September 2011 bigla syang nagka pneumonia na hospital sya ng 5 days simula ng gumaling sya hanggang ngayon thanks god hindi na sya nag kakasakit ulit..

(Ito po yung tanong ko kung sakaling this coming november i medical kami makikita pa kaya sa xray na nag karon sya ng sakit sa baga dati????)

Almost 1 year na simula ng na hospital...

Nung ni request ng doctor na mag pa xray kami wla naman kaming sakit lungs ung baby ko lang talaga,,

Pls help naman po

Ganito ang alam ko sa TB. Yung anak mo na nagkasakit nito ay carrier na hindi n mababago ang condition. Kaya puro positive ang skin test niya habangbuhay. Ikaw na tatay most likely positive ka rin sa skin test kaya irequire ng doctor na ma xray kayo para sigurado na hindi na active ang tb. Kungbaga depende sa resistansya ng katawan. Kung mahina ang katawan sa resistance ng bacteria medyo kakapitan kayo. Kaya huwag mong pabayaan yung anak mo na manghina ng katawan.

Huwag kang magalala kabayan, moderno na ang treatment ng tb ngayun.

Yung kapatid ko dati malala na ang tb niya nung nadiskobre dahil sa kahirapan ng buhay. Nagamot siya pero halos kalahati ang lungs ang nawala. Ako carrier din kaya ang skin test ko puro positive. Dito sa US di naman iniintindi sa trabaho kung carrier ka kagaya ko huwag lang active.sa pinas kasi expose tayo sa sakit na yan kaya marami ang nagpositive sa skin test. kuwento ko lang ito para marelax ka. Pero Huwag mong pabayaan yung anak mo hayan, nagpneumonia pa.

Yes but very seldom that they got approved. I would say 20% Chance, would you take it? Then wear a bright color shirt during the interview, hehe , just like my son, it worked. Just a tip which you may know : a part in the application which ask who will shoulder your expenses, it should be You not your relative because you are a tourist. Good luck kabayan.

Pneumonia is the least of your worries, kadalasan sa Pinas ay carrier tayo ng TB,

pero dahil nung ipinanganak tayo, merong mga nabigyan na ng BCG vaccine, and kung may BCG

vaccine ka, kadalasan ay FALSE POSITIVE ang result nito sa mga bata, which yan ang nangyari sa

anak kong lalaki, but my wife whose a nurse here in the US, assures me na once mag-positive

yan, ang next step ay xray, and she was telling me na walang makikita talaga, hindi nga sya nagkamali,

the scary thing is that madiagnose ka ng TB before, got treated and cured, yet may naiwang scarring

sa lungs mo, dun medyo mahigpit ang SLEC, and sinisigurado nilang hindi na active ang TB sa system mo...

These things are the most common cause of delay ng marami, lalo ang mga matatanda na, pero madalang

akong makarinig na nadelay ang mga bata at healthy adults...

In any case, Good luck,...
