I have sent the requested papers for a co-sponsor today to Manila and the embassy should receive them by next week.

They had Kathlene go ahead and pay Delbros, so does that mean they will go ahead and process her visa once they review the co-sponsor? There should be no problem with his income since it has been well over the requirements on the past three years tax forms.

Should I hope for Kathlene getting a visa in the next few weeks, or will they take their time on reviewing her case?

2 questions for everyone...

1) Changing US address after arrival on a K1 visa...who to notify and how?

2) X-Rays from SLEC...accidentally left at sisters house in Manila, do we need to get them sent here or can we just get new ones here?

#2 - You'll never know when the X-ray film will be handy. In my case, I'm still so glad that I got it with me because when I had my TB Skin Test as part of my AOS application, they told me that I am positive (15mm, that's the reading). Since most of us Filipinos received the BCG vaccines when we were kids, we're supposed to have TB antibodies and I explain to them that that's the main reason why I may be positive of TB. It made sense to them but they wanted me to have another X-ray just to make sure that my lungs are ok. When I told them that I just had an X-ray last May of this year and I got it with me, they just read it and didn't ask for another CXR. It saved as couple of $$. In your case, they "might" require her a new CXR someday and I don't think it's going to be a problem for you to do it.

If you are married and apply for CENOMAR you will get a CEMAR . Cert. of marriage!

Good to have one way or the other.

Ours showed our marriage plus my wifes [widowed] first marriage.

Embassy eased up doing their own checks on CENOMAR last fall but looks like their back doing it again whether you give them the copy you got from NSO or not.

All on a case by case basis tho

If a beneficiary is older and has illegimate kids they tend to check on their own more for singleness.

They well know that it's easier to get fake NSO certs. than to get an annument in pinas!

Be honest... nobody knows what set of questions the CO might ask and they can be so tricky sometimes, but if you are honest and true to your heart, you don't have to worry... the truth always comes out. I suggest you bring a copy of CEMAR and the death certificate of your husband in case they'll ask about your previous marriage.

Filipino pre interviewer asked my wife how her ex died. As long as the NSO death certificate as been filed there should be no problems unless maybe if he died in one of the planes in 9/11!!
