  1. I stand corrected, I guess I just assumed that one needed to apply like in the Philippines, and all are documented. Peace!
  2. OfCourse, you needed to apply, it has all the forms that you needed to fill out and along with the processing and documents required. You could not just choose one country without any properly documented and proof.
  3. Hello, First you need to check with your home country if they allow dual citizenship Second, then get the information from your embassy here in the states on how to apply what are the requirements needed etc. then apply.
  4. NOTE: Even F2B who were documentarily qualified are still waiting for their interview. My brother will be marking his third year this year for waiting his interview. Best regards, NG
  5. Greetings! NOTE: reference: Visa Bulletin For June 2023 (state.gov) (Under F2B or F24 CATEGORY, AS OF JUNE 2023 THE PRIORITY DATE IS OCTOBER 2011.) 1. Your father petitioned you under F24 or F2B category, unmarried child of a legal permanent resident or a green card holder over 21 years old. The case was approved and was sent to NVC and will stay there until your priority date will be current. 2. Once your priority date is current, NVC will begin to contact you by sending you a welcome letter as well as an invoice ID number, wherein you can start paying and submitting your documents. 3. Once NVC gets your payment and all your documents are submitted and accepted, your status will be change to documentarily qualified. 4. Then you will just have to wait for NVC to send you the interview date and medical. 5. Then you will have your medical and interview. Note Due to COVID, backlogs my brothers are still waiting for their interview, they were all documentarily qualified since 2020. And their priority date is March 2010.
  6. Greetings! My brothers were documentarily qualified long time ago under F2B category. This year marks their third year of waiting for their interview. Every two months is the same update of the exact letter that you got from NVC. I think the embassy will notify NVC if there is a slot for interview availability, NVC then will notify the petitioner as well as the beneficiary. Yes, I read and heard many heart-breaking stories, example, the petitioner gets sick and some even passed away and still no interview for their loved ones. I know a gentleman before who told me that he needed to be okay, at that time he was a day old in our facility. He further told me that he needed to be okay, because he has kids that he petitioned and is just waiting for their interview, and his story reminded of my brothers' current situation, if something will happen.

  7. And when you do order, request for more for future use.
  8. Greetings! When it comes to documents that you needed to prepare red this link: reference: NVC Processing (state.gov) and when it comes to previous marriages even if it is not asked, just prepare all necessary documents, after all you must have those documents ready at all times. and when it comes to time of the interview, we will never know and I think it all depends upon what embassy, so my best suggestion, gather and prepare all those documents that is related to your case, esp. those that are not going to expire, and make sure that your police report will be current.
  9. Just use the envelope that has an attached bubble protector with it.
  10. Greetings! This is not uncommon, during chest x-ray, if the results show spots, meaning scarring then one must undergo a sputum test to rule out TB. I remembered few postings on the site talking about the hassle of being tested, which is not a denial, but rather another delay for the visa application to be complete. Here is what I remembered, but not sure if this is still the current procedure. I hope it helps. - When they see scarring from your chest x-ray result, they will schedule you for a sputum test which is three consecutive days. One must carefully follow the instructions given once in the clinic on how to properly collect the sputum samples, to avoid another delay. - After the third day collection, they will give you a doctors evaluation schedule and it is usually one week after the last day of the sputum test. - On the evaluation schedule, you will know if the test results, either you have a positive or negative result, and the doctor will explain of why a test was needed to be done. So, if the result is positive, then you will need six months treatment at St. Lukes everyday as the strategy is DOTS treatment, meaning directly observed treatment when taking your medications. - and if you have a negative result, they still need to culture sputum for six to eight weeks, monitor the culture and if they turn positive even before six to eight weeks, the clinic will contact you and will have to start the treatment. if it is negative then you will have to go back and get your immunization shots, then you will be going home with your medical clearance, immunization form, CD x-ray, and a slip to guide you on how to schedule an interview appointment. And I think the rest of the medical result will be directly forwarded to the Us Embassy, note: one thing that they mentioned is to be mindful with expiration of your medical examination date. It is one year, but if you went to a sputum test then it is six months. Does this mean that you may have your interview prior to your medical? I am not sure about this, but I'd read few who had their interview before there medical. Otherwise you will have to repeat the whole medical process as well as the payment. -
  11. Greetings! She needed to have the sputum test for culture to rule out TB and if they determined that there is an active TB, then she will be undergoing for six months treatment. She will be asked to be near the hospital where they recommend as TB treatment strategy is DOTS, MEANING DIRECTLY OBESRVED TREATMENT. ALSO, TB IS A BACTERIAL INFECTION AND NOT VIRAL.
  12. Greetings! The summon letter has a form to be filled out, either you answer that and send it back via slow mail or I highly suggest doing it online as it is the easiest and the best way. If you noticed, the form has a question, if you are a US citizen or not, that is enough for you to be disqualified as a juror, do it, online it is faster and then you can have the result right away. I think you have 10 days to reply.
  13. note: I read the following below, but if you want to make sure contact them directly. references: Registering jewelry with U.S. Customs and Border Protection prior to traveling abroad (cbp.gov) Frequent question: Do you have to declare jewelry at customs? - Shine precious stones (phioro.com
  14. or you may wait during your citizenship time as you can change your name during this time.
  15. Greetings! Like they suggested have her scan the photos, also there are a lot of internet cafes and photo labs in Peru, in fact a lot of internet cafes or all hotels offer internet services. Ty. BG p.s. there are so many photo labs in Peru as well.
  16. Greetings! First things first, Check if the visa category is current, for F3 category, India's current F3 category is December 2008 while Philippines is June 2002. It is still a long time of waiting. If this could have been current, you can try to ask for an expedite processing or interview. Which is you can request to NVC by writing to them his reason, like medical condition and a reason of how it will impact him as a petitioner and along with the request is an official letter from his physician or the hospital that includes her medical diagnosis, just make sure that the letter is official with all doctors or hospital information, these along with all immigration case numbers etc. must be emailed to NVC, but because the category is not current, NVC could not do anything. I hope that everything goes well. NG "Can I do anything if I’m told there is no visa available for my relative? No, there is nothing that the NVC can do to expedite the petition if a visa is not available in their category."
  17. Just like any other countries you are not allowed to work on a visit visa period.
