Compilation of Documents

[meandterry 3]

Hi to all

May I know if there is proper compilation of documents to bring with me during interview?

Thank you.

My fiancé completed the interview not long ago, and she is scheduled to get her visa tomorrow! You cannot be precise enough getting your "proof" of relationship together. I will just offer of what we did, and she went through the interview with no problems.

I cannot impress on you enough, that you need to be very organized and know exactly where things as the officer will ask for.

-- Buy a 1 and 1/2 inch 3 ring notebook, and plastic cover inserts for each document to go into. Buy ""tabs"" that labels each section of what is in the notebook.

-- Start with all your letters of documentation (NOA 1 NOA 2, MNL number etc.

--Assets section, bank statements, savings.

-- Last years income tax return.

-- e-mails between you two.

-- Money transferred like Western Union receipts.

-- Proof of travel, that you two have physically met.

-- Pictures, be selective use one's with family and friends

-- Both need to hand write letter of intention to marry within 90 days of POE

-- Divorce decrees if there has been any.

-- Up-dated proof of income just before you go to interview

I am sure I have missed some things.,,.. but this will give you some idea of how to start!

Good Luck! The Raven!

Don't forget the following as well:

1. Forms: 156, 157 & 156K and the appointment letter - you will submit these at the gate

2. Recent tax forms of petitioner (1040, W2), your NBI Clearance, birth certificate - you will submit these to the Filipino interviewer

3. Other documents listed by raven you can compile as you like so it will be easier for you to look for it when needed.
