im filing my petition I-130 for my wife in the phlippines on oct 31.

after ill get the receipt from I-130 ill be doing I-129f right away.

my question is....

how long does it take (months) for the visa council or embassy to let me present my affidavit of support for my wife after all those applications were approved.??????

the reason why im asking this is because i am going to quit my job as a registered nurse and spend my time with my wife in the phlippines until i need to present my affidavit of support. by the time that i need to present my affidavit of support, that will be the time ill come back to the states and look for a job right away since i understand that in order to present affidavit of support, i need to have a job.

though i have enough savings on my bank right now.

help me guys, i just miss my wife so so much. i cant stand being away from her.

thanks guys. i love you all.

It will be months before you have to submit your affidavit of support!!.how many months is like asking how long is a piece of string!!..............but it will be a few months at least!!

Wow, youre quitting you job? Cool! I WISH i could do the same. I guess as long as you give yourself enough time to get another job and send in the check stubs and stuff. I am no expert but, she is gonna need all that stuff after the approval and for her interview.... Right? Please correct me if I am wrong

Good luck!

She'll need the affidavit of support when she goes for the interview at the consulate. Check around here for other people's experiences with that consulate to find out if it will be difficult or not with only a month or so of employment to show.

It'll be a few months, possibly close to a year. Will your savings last that long? And where are you going to live when you get back to the States? You might want to consider moving back as soon as one of the petitions is approved, so that you can get a job and get settled and ready to fill out the affidavit.
