K1 Visa Philippines
To bring your Filipina fiancee or spouse to the USA, a K1 Visa petition must first be submitted to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Once the K1 Visa petition is approved, the petition is then forwarded to the U.S. Embassy, in Manila, Philippines. The U.S. Embassy will then contact the filipina fiancee and arrange an interview date shortly thereafter.
Medical Exam at St. Lukes Hospital
We have provided quality K1 and K3 visa preparation services since 1997.
Prior to the interview, the Filipina Fiancee and any children who may accompany her will be requird to have medical exams at St. Lukes Hospital, in Manila.
All Filipina K1 Visa applicants are required to have the following vaccinations, if appropriate, for age, medical condition, or medical history:
Mumps, Measles, Rubella, Polio, Tetanus and diptheria toxoids, Pertussis, Influenza type B, Hepatitis B, Varicella, and Pneumococcal.
The Interview at the U.S. Embassy Manila
After your Filipina Fiancee successfully obtains her k1 visa, she will be required to take her passport/envelope and travel to the CFO in Manila or Cebu to get a "Pre-Departure Orientation Seminar Stamp". All Filipinas must have a Pre Departure Seminar (PDOS) stamp to leave the country.
Arriving in the USA
Once your Filipina fiancee arrives in the USA, she must marry you within 90 days or she will be required to return to the Philippines. After you marry, you must then file for the I-485 adjustment of status.
