I hate to have to ask, but do you actually know what a passport is used for?

She needs to have a passport with more than 6 months until expiration. They will stamp the visa in her passport. Try to see if she can get one ASAP!

Where would the visa go? How would your fiance leave the country?

Yes, she will need her passport. She will need the passport for her medical at SLEC (St. Luke's Medical Extension Clinic). SLEC will stamp her passport that she is done with the medical, will take her passport and they will forward it together with the medical results to US EMbassy for her interview.

If she applies for passport at DFA, if she will divulge that she is on a K-1 visa, they will require her to attend the CFO seminar first to get the "Yellow Certificate' (Counseling and Seminar Certificate/Attendance).

Per Republic Act 8239 and Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) Order 28-94, Filipinos proceeding abroad as fiancé(e)s and spouses of foreign nationals are required to attend the CFO's guidance and counseling programs as a pre-requisite to the issuance of passports.

Tell her to get it ASAP as her interview is 3 weeks away and she still needs to have her medical. Tell her to have the medical as early as possible. Good Luck!

There really isn't a need for people to be mean-spirited in their answers, either answer the specific question or move on. He stated that he was not familiar with the process and also keep in mind that for many years Americans were not required to have a passport. Americans in general have no need for visas so until the new law was passed a passport was not required.

It is responses like a few that I have seen on here why people are hesitant to ask questions. You may find it dumb and irrelevant, but there is someone else out there that it will help. Gosh, lighten up and , that's what we are all on here for, to help and to be helped!
