Hello, 

    My Name is Ruel John, or R.J. for short. I am a Marine veteran(Filipino-American) who served from 2017-2020. I have a long distance filipina girlfriend who is currently residing in the philippines, and my goal is to fly and see her by october 2025 and get plenty of photos together for a fiance Visa. I am a bit worried that the process could take longer due to the Trump Administration. Not sure whether the procedures are going to be more strict. I do not have the money to hire people to help file for my beneficiary. So I'm hoping that somebody would be kind enough to assist us. I went to USCIS website and i was a bit confused where to get started, then i found this website. Thank you for having us!

So this is someone you have yet to meet and are looking to do next October.

 

If so no need to get too worried now, you have a long time to read the guides etc.

You've got lots of time to learn about the process.  This site is for DIY users, so you will find everything you need here to file on your own.  The Philippines is a common country for K-1.  There is a regional forum that discusses only the Philippines:  Philippines - VisaJourney

Yes meet up with her and get engaged and you will be filing the i-129f. Check out the guides here and also KsenyaInternational's youtube channel was so helpful to me. You can already start preparing with evidence to show your relationship before you got engaged screenshotting your conversations. You're definitely able to do with without outside help. Be sure to ask any questions you may have about filling out the form and double trip check them before you send them off! Good luck!
