Petitioner Birth Certificate

CENMAR ( Advisory On Marriages ) = if you have this might as well send one

Dont forget to write your case number on the upper left portion. Goodluck hope for speedy process.

Hi. Thank you for the reply. I got this information from travel.state.gov so I guess I don't need to send my husband's birth certificate:

Who needs to submit petitioner documents?

If you are applying for an IR5 (Parent of a U.S. Citizen) visa, you are required to provide:

1.Original or certified copy of your Petitioner’s birth certificate

2.Original or certified copy of your Petitioner’s marriage certificate from the Petitioner’s current and all previous marriages.

If you are applying for a F4 (Brother or Sister of a U.S. Citizen) visa you are required to provide:

1.Original or certified copy of your Petitioners birth certificate.

About the CEMAR, I believe we'll bring it on the interview.

I also got the email from NVC yesterday that case number should be written on the upper right portion of each document. :)

hi, how much was the medical at st. luke?

Hello! The medical fee at St. Luke's Extension Clinic depends on the current USD-Php exchange rate for that day. I had the medical exam last Wednesday and I paid Php 9,387.50. The fee payment must be in Philippine peso currency. SLEC won't accept credit cards, health insurance or any other foreign money. Goodluck! :)

HELLO CAN ANYONE TELL ME? PLEASE ALL THE DOCUMENT NEEDS TO B E IN ENGLISH OR NO???DID U TRANSLATE EVERYTHING OF BENEFICIARY

All foreign documents need to be translated to English by an authorized translator. I didn't have my documents translated because civil documents here in the Philippines are already written in English.

I AM AT NVC STAGE SORRY I MEAN POL IC E AND BIRTH CERTIFIC ATE NEEDS TO BE TRANSL ATE ENGLISH OR NO?

I'm at the NVC stge as well and I'm pretty sure any document that you have to submit to USCIS or NVC needs to be translated to English unless if they're already written in English. I advice you to do the translation rather than getting a checklist/RFE from the NVC because you failed to have your documents translated. That way you can avoid further delay.
