Does any one know what the embassy is going to want from my wife so that she can get her visa and her son visa approved. His birth certificate does not list a father it is unknown and he has her last name. He has never met his real father nor does he even know that I am not his biological father. I am the only papa he has ever known. with that said I have read few post in other section that seem to be based on the particular country as far as what is needed. So what will the Philippines want from us? I am filing both I-130s together.

Actually since the child is considered illegitimate in the Philippines -- the law gives the mother control of the child. You will need nothing from the father.

Read the guides to get familiar with the required documents and the process.

The IR-1/CR-1 Guide

The process after your approved I-130s from from USCIS to NVC

"The Marines I have seen around the world have the cleanest bodies, the filthiest minds, the highest morale, and the lowest morals of any group of animals I have ever seen. Thank God for the United States Marine Corps!" - Eleanor Roosevelt, First Lady of the United States, 1945.

A more direct answer to your question can be found in the link below. Some of the documents needed for the NVC process will also be needed during the interview at the embassy.

Nothing is needed, the mother has sole custody of the child.

It seems to be fairly common. We didn't have any problems with it.
