Hurry and download the Green card App!
Once you arrive in the United States under a k1 fiance visa, you have to apply for Adjustment of Status to become a permanent resident also know as a Green card. This app serves as a checklist of requirements and a guide throughout the process. It also has sample images of the letters that you will receive. This app is available in App store. Goodluck! :-)

Can I still get a 10 yr green card even if I get divorced?
Hey guys,
This is a repost from my website efilipinowomen.com. Just want to share it to more people who do not know their rights. This is additional knowledge about the green card process in the United States.
After you get married (k1/fiance visa) and apply for a Permanent Residence, you receive a 2 yr conditional green card. All of us are expecting that our marriage will be forever and hopefully it will. But you should know that you can build your own life in the USA even if your marriage has to end.
A fiance who contacted me asked: Can I stay in the US if I get a divorce after getting the two year conditional green card? The answer is yes.
A fiance gets married and she applies for the adjustment of status/conditional green card through the USCIS. She gets her 2 year conditional green card. And after 2 years she must apply for 10 year green card. Once you apply for the 10 year conditional green card she can apply alone (divorced) as long as she can prove that her marriage/relationship was real.
YESSSSSS. You can.
Tagalog: Hi mga sis! Manuod kayo sa video na ito para may knowledge kayo sa green card process natin dito.
After dumating dito, kung k1 fiance visa holder, mag apply kayo ng Permanent residence or green card. Mag sesend ang USCIS ng interview appointment para pumunta sa interview kasama ang US citizen na asawa. Tapos nyan i send nila ang green card through mail. Sa point na ito kung hindi mag work ang marriage pwede kayong magpatuloy ng mag isa.
After 2 years, kailangan ulit mg send ng form I I751 to remove the conditions ng green card at para makuha ang 10 year green card kasunod ang US citizenship. May nag message sa akin na member din rito. Hindi sya tinatrato ng maayos ng kanyang asawa. Nung na mention nyang makipag divorce, tinakot sya na hindi sya makakakuha ng 10 year green card nya kung makikipag diborsyo sya.
Totoo ba na madedeport tayo kung nakipaghiwalay kapag natanggap na ang green card? Hindi Yan totoo. Kung abusuhin kayo ng asawa huwag matakot!!!! Pwede pa rin kayong maging US citizen kahit wala na ang asawa. I secure nyo lang ang pagpakasal at unang process ng pagkuha ng green card. Yung 2 year conditional green card. Pag nakuha nyo na ang green card at kung hindi maganda ang pagsasama nyo or hindi kayo tinatrato ng maayos ng inyong mga asawa hindi nyo kailangan mag stay sa ganyang sitwasyon.

Does Age matter to Filipinas when marrying a foreign national?
Does Age matter to Filipinas when marrying a foreign national?
You will often see Filipinas dating much older men in the Philippines. You will see a 20-something woman walking in a park or having dinner with a white guy who is over 40 or 50 years old. Sometimes the couple looks very happy together.
I think this is because many Filipinas seek the comfort, love, understanding and stability that an older more experienced man can bring. Many Filipinas lack a father figure. So when they find a man with these qualities they are more than willing to give the opportunity a try.
Unfortunately, stable male figures are very hard to find among filipino men. The good ones are usually taken. The young, handsome men are busy with two or three women. So older foreign guys are a natural attraction for a single Filipina who has already had a bad break up with a young filipino first love.
Filipinas often gravitate toward a father figure. A responsible, matured guy who is not afraid of a serious, long-term commitment.
I have found that many filipino guys are dependent to their parents (not ALL but many I met).
Some still live with their parents or their decisions are based on what their parents think or say which is not good in building a healthy marriage. It can actually make the relationship shaky (including my parents). It is cool to have blessings and guidance from parents but it is NOT cool to have parents involved with every decision that a couple should be making for themselves.
Another unfortunate trend is that many Filipinas are impregnated and left behind by irresponsible filipino guys so they end up finding another father for their child/children to be able to raise them better and to have financial stability. There are very good Filipino men out there, who are great role models and incredible fathers. I am not talking about them.. those guys are usually taken.
Marrying an older guy is not unusual in the Philippines. Filipino women also marry older Filipino guys who are doing pretty good in the home country.
Age differences don't worry most Filipinas. We focus more on stuff like manners, personality, financial status and upbringing of our men because these factors have the most impact in the relationship. As long as the guy can still perform in bed, everything is kool ;)
