Hi! i would just like to know if K1 petition affects the petition of my parents in the philippines. i was born in saipan so i was a US citizen my parents are both filipino and only used to work there. we went back to the philippines when i was 3 y.o and stayed until i was 20 to study due to cheaper tuition fee. now i went back to guam and live with my aunt since october 2012. i heard that i can petition my parents when i turn 21 so i need to wait. now i want to have a k1 petition for my boyfriend in the philippines. will k1 petition or change of my surname when we get married affects the petition of my parents when the time i will file petition for them?

No- the only way they two petitions affect eachother is that there are more people to financially support for the Affadavit of Support.

To petition your parents, you'll include your marriage certificate for proof of your legal name change with your (IR-5) I-130 packets.

Thanks! that's the only problem, i dont think that my income is enough to petition 3 people at the same time. what should i do? if i did k1 petition first does my soon to be husband still be listed in my liability even he already got his own job here in guam before i petition my parents? please help me to decide on my actions do i need to petition first my parents?

Yes he would still count, but you can add his income to yours if he is wiling to co-sponsor your parents so that should give you enough income.

Good Afternoon Sir/Mam. My name is Divine Angeles. I want to tell you first my story then followed by my questions so that you can base your response to me on my story of my situation.

I born in Saipan on 1992 of November, Iam a US citizen thru birth, my parents are both Pilipinos, they stay in saipan coz of theyre work, they only have a working visa, and at 1993 of August of both parents decided to go back to philippines, me and my parents stayed for 19 years in philippines, October 2012 I by myself decided to go back in US to work, and now I'm here at Guam lived at my Aunt house.

If I married this year with my boyfriend using k1 visa and when I turned 21 is there gonna be problem when I petitions my parents? is the time and year to process my parents petition is just same when my status is single or married?

Duplicate thread in the K-1 forum has been moved here and merged with this one. Duplicate post removed.

Please do not post the same question in more than one place. It doesn't get you more or different answers and can become very confusing. Please only post a question once - and wait for responses. Thank you.

once you become a U.S citizen and age 21years and older you can petition your parents to come over. you do not have to be married or single...just a citizen an age then the document requirments for the process.

You have asked this question before (in fact it appears you just copied and pasted it here again). Answer is the same, you are a USC so there is no issue with you petitioning your parents, meeting the I-864P guidelines with your fiance/husband and parents as dependents will be necessary, of course if you wait until your husband is working also his income can be used as well (co-sponsor).
