US Embassy / US Visa Thread 11

[m_lim]

gusto ko sana i-apply ng visa yaya ng baby ko. may chance kaya makakuha?
ano ano kaya dapat kong i-provide na papers?

[vain_kixie]

usually pag baby tapos yung parents may valid visa na, approve na yan. Bring NSO birth certificate
of your baby,

^She was asking about applying for her baby's nanny, sis.

^^I think na-ask na din yan before dito. My former manager also tried to apply for her son's yaya's visa para maisama nila mga 3 years ago and it wasn't approved cus when they were asked kung anong meron si yaya na hinde mahahanap sa mga nannies sa US mejo weak ang sagot nila. Plus, if they were only there for vacay lang bakit kelangan ng yaya, balak bang magtagal?

[vain_kixie]

lol sorry naman. Not reading properly. I know what you need is give a contract to your yaya stating that
her working hours is from this time to this time and will be paid at least the US minimum wage. She can only
work yung legal hours allowable sa US. Usually they approve yung mga yaya na years na working for the family.

Sana sinabi nila sis na we trust the yaya very much and she already knows how to handle your son kasi sanay na.  Hindi naman madali sa mga bata ang new nannies kasi mag aadjust pa sila.  Baka pag naexplain yun sa consul, payagan na tag along si yaya.

I know someone who was able to secure a tourist visa for her son's yaya. Ang problema lang, lumayas si yaya kasama yung kanyang passport and stole some of her things.
So lesson, if ever your yaya is granted a US visa, keep her passport!

^that also happened to our neighbor's yaya and her own kid. that was back in the 90's. yaya nung kalaro ko and yung anak ni yaya, both were approved VISA's. tapos hala yun nga lumayas. I do not remember what happened nor the actions that were taken pero grabe ha, ingrata lang.

[miss_o]

mga sis ask ko lang kung me nakapagtry na bang samahan kayo ng isang u.s citizen sa mismong interview nyo sa u.s embassy? pwede ba ito?

[m_lim]

thanks mga sis.. sana mabigyan si yaya kasi yaya ko pa to nung bata ako. ngayon baby ko naman inaalagaan niya.

[vain_kixie]

Pag ganyan sis mas malaki ang chance kasi ilang years na working for your family.

[poshgurl]

hi mga sis. we have an appointment on tuesday. both me and hubby may visa na. iaapply namin this time si baby. she is 1 year and 10 months. is it possible na masamahan ako ni hubby sa loob hanggang matapos yung interview? o isang parent lang pwede. chaka mga sis, may courtesy lane pa ba sa mga may dalang kids. im worried kasi malikot na baby ko, baka ma bore. eh bawal naman magdala ng ipad please help me mga sis.

[maxiroyce]

^ hi sis poshgurl. Nag apply last week ng visa hubby and baby namin. Ako meron na, I was allowed to enter. Kasali nga rin ako sa interview eh. Hehe. Sabi naman at least 1 parent, so pwede kayo ng husband mo.

Waiting lang ang matagal, yung sa labas na area. Pagdating inside, after ng pre-screening, kapag may bata uunahin kayo. From pre screening to interview wala pa kaming 30 minutes.

[poshgurl]

thanks sis maxiroyce! im really worried talaga kasi. baka magwala si baby pag nainip, chaka i think im pregnant kasi we've been trying to have baby no.2, so i need help talaga. madalas ako dizzy eh. thanks ha. mabuti mabilis lang

[Crystelhues]

hi mga sis, i am scheduled for an interview on the 26th.,ask ko lang sana kasi when i filled up my ds160 online, yung given name ko, first name lang nilagay ko. dun sa full name in native alphabet that is where i included my middle name. is this okay?

last name: cruz
given name: anne marie

full name in native alphabet: anne marie banez cruz

and another thing, sa mother's name kasi hindi naman nakalagay na mothers maiden name so i wrote my mom's married name.. magkaproblem kaya ito?

[vain_kixie]

m_lim, I just read in another thread (pex) that her yaya was recently approved of a US tourist visa.
Yaya has been working for 4 years in her household tapos 23 years old lang. If medyo old na si yaya mo, im sure
mas may chance pa siya kasi hindi na red flag yung age niya. Also she's been with you since you were young. The yaya
just showed the contract to the consul and was asked if she knows her rights. Tapos yun, approve na.

[andee_gurl]

Question...I'm about to get married next year. Do I need to change my surname sa Visa or okay na yun? Will I just bring my marriage certificate everytime I travel to US?

TIA!

[poshgurl]

Sis andee_gurl, alam ko need mo na lang dalhin marriage certificate. Same tyo. Had mine dalaga pa, and now married. :-)

[maxiroyce]

Mga sis, ok lang kaya na ang surname ko sa passport eh yung kay hubby then sa visa maiden name?

Mag rerenww ako passport sa January and punta kami sa US sa May. Expry ng visa ko 2018 pa, so dun ko pa lang mapapapalitan surname ko. Dadalhin ko na lang siguro marriage certificate namin pag punta ng US. Ano sa tingin nyo? Thanks

[andee_gurl]

@poshgurl -- Thanks sis
