Help! US Embassy Visa questions...

[boybi]

Green passport pa pala ang gamit nung isa kong anak, which will expire on Aug 2011. Dapat ko bang ipa-renew muna ito bago magapply ng US visa?

[shadow]

Question:

Nagaaply na ako ng US visa online, ok na yung sa akin as principal applicant. Pero nung para sa wife ko na, pag hindi principal applicant ang nilagay ko, ang choices lang sa purpose of travel is STUDENT tsaka OTHERS lang. So dapat principal applicant din ang wife and children ko?

alam ko Boybi before principal lahat since individual application lahat. ewan ko lang ngayon

regarding sa passport hinde ko alam ano sabi sa US embassy website? kasi meron ibang embassy hinde na tumatangap ng green passport.

pag tinanong ang nasa harap mong american (if american) ng ganito:

Are you gonna stay long in United states, ang sagot nya siempre I'm afraid so
kase taga doon naman sya..tapos same question uli sa briton ang sagot naman nya is
I'm Afraid not, kase di naman sya taga doon..

pag ikaw na ang tinanong ng same question..ang sagot mo I'm not Afraid hehehehe.

I know it was OT back then but really it might be easier to just get Canadian citizenship than getting a US visa!

I think principal dapat kayo lahat...nagawa na namin to when nag apply for my 3 yr old son.

Nagkamali ako dun sa application ng isang anak ko. Instead of clicking 'Start a family application', 'new application' and na click ko. Kaya pala feeling ko iba yung form and hindi pre-filled yung ibang mga boxes. Ang ginawa ko, nagapply ako ulit using family application. Mag worry ba ako dapat???

Also, pano pala kung isama ko yaya? Dapat ba family application? Or hiwalay na application?

[shadow]

ok lang yun...

re: hiwalay din application niya ng yaya but mahirap isama ang yaya sa US. especially first time applicant din kayong family. I think kailangan ng bond or something. it's hard to prove ties ng yaya eh.

suggestion ko huwag mo na isama, complicated process. mahigpit sila pag meron kasamang employees.

but who knows, it's up to you...

kasi nobody can guarantee na babalik yun yaya, not even you. wala silang magagawa kung nag TNT yun yaya mo. they can also just ban you but that's just it.

to much risk for them na mag approve ng yaya for a family unless kung meron special needs and isang anak mo or something.

[boybi]

Nai-apply ko na yaya, pero hiwalay, not part of family application. Di ko kasi malagay kung anong relationship, wala sa choices yung yaya

Mag schedule na nyan ako ng interview sa visapoint, kasama na yung yaya.

Kung sakaling ma-deny yung yaya, hindi naman siguro kami damay? Or hindi naman siguro maging cause ng pagdeny sa amin ang pagsasama ko ng yaya?

[boybi]

I scheduled my interview in visapoint for oct. 25, and I forgot, barangay elections pala araw na yun! Will me appointment be moved to another date?

US Visa application is individual bro.,- So, walang damay-damay....

Wow! malaki ang ginastos mo niyan.... Hindi na gratis ngayon.....

Depends on when you plan to travel.

As long as there is 6-months validity in his green passport on the time of travel, OK pa yan. In short, if you will travel on or before Feb 2011, no problemo using the green passport. Beyond that, hindi na pwede at kelangan na niya i-renew muna.

The Philippine Consulate General in Chicago would like to inform the public that all
green Philippine passports (non-machine readable passports) shall remain valid until the
stated date of expiry and will be acceptable for use abroad.

it is still very easy, just immigrate as an investor under the provincial nominees. sa couple of my cousins went there as an investors, they are now living in Richmond, BC.

OT:

That's the way the super-rich Filipinos do it. But even middle class and lower income Filipinos have a good chance of migrating to Canada via Skilled Worker Program or Provincial Nominee Program.

In fact:

RP number 1 source of migrants to Canada

http://globalnation.inquirer.net/new...ants-to-Canada

The Philippines tied with India and China as the number one source of temporary and permanent migrants to Canada, Canadian minister of citizenship, immigration, and multiculturalism told reporters in a press conference Friday.

Jason Kenney, who was on a brief visit to the country, said there are now 450,000 people of Filipino origin in Canada. “We continue to welcome more people from the Philippines every year,” he said.


Calling it unprecedented, he said the influx of Filipinos to Canada jumped 10-fold from over 2,000 in 2000 to almost 20,000 in 2008.

Kenney said that Canada issued permanent resident visas to more people from the Philippines than anywhere else in the world, noting a 30-percent increase in issuances of said visas from 18,370 in 2005 to almost 30,000 last year.
Every year, he said, between 15,000 and 20,000 Filipinos come to Canada as permanent residents.

how much show money ba needed for a canadian investor's visa? kelangan ba siya ideposit as parang bonds?

[leonleon]

how much show money ba needed for a canadian investor's visa? kelangan ba siya ideposit as parang bonds?

OT:

Don't really know the details but according to:

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigra...ness/index.asp

an investor needs to "invest" CAD$ 400,000. At current ex-rates, that is equivalent to:

P 17,200,000.00

Visa approved! ;) Walang hinanap na any docs. Just a few questions lang.

Denied yung yaya. Baka daw hindi bumalik dito.
