So, when do u plan to attend the seminar? My husband called up the embassy yesterday and they said the courier will have it by Friday. I'm hoping to get it on Sunday (if the MOA branch is open) and attend the seminar on Monday. Im still here in Bicol I'll go to Manila when my visa is ready for pick

I might attend the seminar before I leave for US. Probably next month. I'll be out of the country on Monday for work din kasi. So kulang na sa Oras. If I receive it today, I cant pa din tomorrow. I don't know where the seminar is. I'm not familiar with the place. Hehe.

You have to attend the seminar before you leave for the U.S.

Required documents & "OTHER DOCUMENTS" they ask for at CFO: copies of; CENOMAR, certified birth certificate, bio page of passport, visa page from passport, pictures together, from USC - bio page of passport, birth certificate, divorce decree (if been married before) are the most common. The "other documents" clause can be ANYTHING with those nit-wits at CFO.
