US Immigration from Philippines

Not sure if I put this is the right place. I am engaged and my fiance in the Philippines has two minor children. She has never been married (Thank God). I recently filed for the K-1 for my fiance. I want to bring her two minor children along with us to the US. Problem is the "father" is listed on the children's birth certificates. He absconded when the second child was born and has not been seen of heard from since....no contact what-so-ever- No idea where he went. Now I realize that to get the kids Philippine Passports (for K-2) visa we have a problem. How does my fiance get her two children PI passports when "father" has disappeared? What are the steps we need to take so she can obtain PI passports for the children. More attorneys, acts of congress, I can only imagine but I want to get this done. I have read that a court order granting her TOTAL custody of the children must be obtained. Where do I start? Is an attorney required? Anyone know of any attorneys in Makati? Please advise.

Hello All,

Hope all is well.

We received an email from NVC that we can now begin filing application with the NVC for my brother

What do I do next? Do I pay first before I fill out forms and submit requirements?

thank you!

Good day, My mom would like to petition her children (my 2 brothers) who are now above 18 years of age and are single with kids. How long is the processing time for my brothers who are single? How long is the processing time for a married son petitioned by a US citizen parent? Thank you.

Hello has anyone stopping getting the weekly email that shows the estimated approval dates I751 they haven't been sending for 2 weeks now ?

I just got my taxes done, and still waiting for the results of sending the I-130 in. Should I wait to hear from CSC, or send it in soon as possible?

Thanks!
