Hello all,

 

I am so new to all of this so please forgive my dumb question. I live in Georgia, United States and i need to apply for the 9a Visa to see my wife in Philippines now that we have our ROM forms done. Where do i apply for the 9a Visa. Is it Washington Dc Philippines Embassy or do i apply to a consulate and if if consulate does anyone know which one for sure is over the state of Georgia for the 9a Visa. Thank you all. I just want to be sure because all of this paperwork and documents have really got my brain scrambled.

I would suggest you write to the Philippine Embassy in DC for them to confirm all of the requirements are correct on the website.  When I applied for the 9a through the Consulate in NYC, I wrote to confirm everything and they wrote back with several variations to what was listed.  When I applied for the visa, I printed out that email and sent it with my paperwork confirming I followed their instructions, despite the variance on the site.  I didnt have any issues getting the visa, except they gave me the wrong one and I had to mail back to get a new visa sticker.

The United States is now a country obsessed with the worship of its own ignorance.  Americans are proud of not knowing things.  They have reached a point where ignorance, is an actual virtue.  To reject the advice of experts is to assert autonomy, a way for Americans to insulate their increasingly fragile egos from ever being told they're wrong about anything.  It is a new Declaration of Independence: no longer do we hold these truths to be self-evident, we hold all truths to be self-evident, even the ones that arent true.  All things are knowable and every opinion on any subject is as good as any other.  The fundamental knowledge of the average American is now so low that it has crashed through the floor of "uninformed", passed "misinformed", on the way down, and now plummeting to "aggressively wrong."

The consulate in Houston was always responsive to emails and worked with me when I had an issue with one of my requirements.  My wife sent the wrong police clearance from last year, a printed out copy from a smart phone picture.  Their main thing they wanted was a notarized letter from her inviting me to visit her in the Philippines. 

 

This guy went through the Washington DC consulate:
