US Immigration from Philippines

What is biometrics? I have a meeting Friday. What to expect? Should I fill out the form before or during?

My wife went to work in HK 13 years ago, worked there for 3 years and has been back in PH since. We know that we will need to obtain an HK police clearance but the requirements and instructions seem troubling.

These are from the HK website:

1. A PHOTOCOPY of a request letter from the relevant Consulate / Immigration Authority / Government Authority, which contains the applicant s name and clearly indicates that the production of the Certificate is required.
There should also be a POSTAL ADDRESS of the relevant Consulate / Immigration Authority / Government Authority since the application result will be directly sent to them by registered mail. (Please refer to paragraphs 9 to 12 below for details)

2.

Please pay the processing fee in bank draft, made payable to "The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region". The draft must be payable in Hong Kong. A personal cheque in HK dollar which is issued and authorized by any licensed bank in Hong Kong is also acceptable. Regarding the abbreviations on the bank draft / personal cheque, you may write 'The Government of Hong Kong SAR'.

Alternatively, you may mail the application documents to your relative/friend in Hong Kong who can submit the application on your behalf and pay the fee in cash / Octopus Card / EPS in our office*.

Please note that credit card/ electronic/ online/ telegraphic transfer of money / electronic cheque or cash sent by mail are not accepted.

3.Upon receipt of complete application documents and the required processing fee, if no criminal conviction data against the applicant is kept by the Hong Kong Police Force, we shall issue the Certificate and send it directly by registered mail of the Hongkong Post to the relevant Consulate / Immigration Authority / Government Authority within four calendar weeks. Applicants will NOT receive any copy of the Certificate.

I am sure there are others who have encountered these issues can you guide us in how to overcome these.

Hello all:

My fianc e and I are flying MNL-ATL-CLT. Does anyone know if there is a place in the ATL airport (inside terminals) where we can pay our pet fees (two cats)? Is there a Delta special desk or something for this? I don't want to have to exit to ticketing...time will be short. Thanks.

My baby s CRBA appplication was approved and we received the US passport in the mail a couple of weeks ago. Today, I received an email saying that the printed CRBA certificate has been mailed . Is this separate from the US passport which we already received?

Do we need to notarized the Intent to marry and the Statement of witnesses for K-1 Visa? I decided to add a statement of witnesses for more evidence. Thank you
