Original Documents for multiple children

[PIRuby 9]

I have a 19, 16, 13, 10 year old's. When it says original documents, will I need multiple copies of PSA marriage certificate, one for each of them? Do the affidavits of support need to be mailed to me, or can they be printed from computer? I have a letter stating that Manila is willing to expedite our cases, as soon as we have DQ on each. But I am confused on appointments, do we just wait or do we sign in somewhere and make our own appointments. Does each child get their own appointment or do the younger ones interview with me?  Sorry for all the questions.

You just need one copy of the PSA Marriage Certificate.  You scan it and upload identical scans to CEAC for each child.  The same for the Affidavit of Support. The children will be listed as family members 1 thru 4 on page 2.  The form must be signed by the petitioner and identical copies uploaded to CEAC for each child. 

 

You 'should' be able to get all the interview appointments scheduled together.  I believe expedited cases are now being self scheduled at https://cgifederal.secure.force.com/SiteRegister?country=PHILIPPINES&city=MANILA they have an option there for group appointments.

You need the CEMAR (Form 5 advisory of Marriage).  The 19 y.o. will need a CENOMAR, the other children do not .. this is age specific.

NVC should have all the appt scheduled together with you.    If you get an expedite then you schedule your own interview and you schedule you children at the same time (normally, some things are being handled different because of the virus BS) .   You will get a letter/email from NVC

The same for the Affidavit of Support.?  They have separate ones as IR2/CR2. What I need to know is if my hubby needs to DHL the original ones to me for the interviews.

Upload the scan of the I-864 to CEAC.  1 upload for each child's case.  Bring a print-out of the scanned I-864 to the visa interview.
