US Immigration from Philippines

We arrived couple of months ago and now preparing I-130 form to petition my daughter. Once the petitioner submit I-130 online does he need to stay in US for specific period or can he leave US? Due to some unfinished business we need to go back to PH and plan to stay around 5months and then back to US, we worry if there is impact on filing or we have to stay until we got confirmation. On I-130 declaration it also mentioned taking biometrics, how long will this be and will this have impact if we are outside US. Thanks for help.

Just a quick update. It will be 2 years on June 14, that we lost my beautiful son. Ruby and the kids all changed to I360. or an approved Widow's Visa. After 2 months of waiting for the TB Smears came back clear, Ruby has had her Psyc exam and immunizations, the kids are already done! Interviews are now scheduled for April 22. then the CFO #######. Hopefully I will have my family home this summer in Jacksonville!!! I am sure my Angel son is watching from above, to make sure we do it all right!

My spouse has an interview on 25 Apr. Her name (pe a) on her birth cert, AOM and marriage cert. Her NBI clearance does not have the ~ in her middle name. We asked NBI about this and we were told they do not put ~ on their paperwork. Will the USEM tell her to get an AKA, even though NBI says their system does not allow ~ on their paperwork.

Hello! Filipino beneficiary here.

I just received my CENOMAR by mail today, which I had ordered from PSA online. It s for my old name at birth. When I compared it to my CENOMAR from PSA I had attended an appointment for (for my current name), I noticed my CENOMAR from online does not have a barcode.

I am aware barcodes are important on documents like the appointment letter and the DS-160 confirmation letter. Is it also important to have it on CENOMARs that I should buy another, or not so much? Thank you!

For the I-751 form (Part 5: Information about your children) do I have to include our child who is born here in the US?

I also have a child from previous marriage that immigrated here with me.

I am not sure if I need to include my child who is a US Citizen on the ROC form.

Thanks
