The Importance of Becoming “Documentarily Qualified” and How it Relates to Your Petition and/or Appointment Date:

One of the most important functions of utilizing Philippine Travelers services is that we assist you in gathering, cataloging and preparing any and all necessary documents, photos, evidences and forms that will be needed at the time of the medical and/or embassy interviews.  If even one required document, photo or other evidence is missing, then you are deemed not being “Documentarily Qualified”.

Although your priority dates is important, Under the current system for interviews your interview date will ot be set until you are 100% “Documentarily Qualified”.  Meaning you could be sitting on needles and pins, anxiously waiting for word that she has her interview date, when in actuality, it may not have even been set yet, because one or more forms, documents or other evidences has not been submitted!  This has been blamed for more than one American man pulling out all of his hair prematurely! (ha ha Joke of course).

In a slightly different but related matter, if you fail to complete the forms properly and/or there is a discrepancy in any answer provided, the form may be returned to you and/or you (or she) may be required to substantiate the statements set forth therein. Remember, each document now goes first through the embassy interview, and then will be scrutinized by the Homeland Security investigator.

Applicants are no longer permitted to take cell phones or other electronic devices into the U.S. Embassy!  Effective 01 March 2007
