Time in Manila -

I was very skeptical but after a pleasant and informative conversation we chose to move forward. A painless process and lots of good communication is what made this a pleasant and bearable experience. Not to mention how inexpensive Filam Immi-gration is.

Chatting

Be it Yahoo, Skype or Windows Messenger.

Pros & Cons

I personally agree that since the improvement of today's technology the world we once knew to be very big and distant to so many has become smaller and new friends, distant family are quickly reunited in a matter of seconds by the help of email and live chatting.

First!

Lets review the pros and cons with emails.

We all enjoy the benefits of emailing one another for the soul purpose of it's speed.

Emailing has made life much easier and it can be sent to the other side of the world in a matter of seconds.

In this segment we will talk about the benefits of the sponsor and the beneficiary communicating by way of email. And then the down falls it can also have with USCIS.

Pros

With Emailing


►		Emailing is how most of us communicate. It is how most of us even ---- met our boy/girl friends in the first place.

►		We email one another because it is convenient, it's faster than snail ---- mail, it's for the most part cheaper.

►		We have found emailing to be exciting to use, because we can ---- send attachments, such as pictures, files and save it all.

►		We can count on traveling anywhere in the world and still be able to ---- access our email accounts.

►		Emails are great because it reduces the use of paper, known as ---- paper reduction.

►		Emailing makes us all look perfect, because it offers spell check, ---- grammar check and it offers countless font styles with any color we ---- desire to personalize who we are.

►		Emails can be saved for many years and most people like to go ---- back to old emails to refresh their memories of certain events.

►		Last emails do hold some value to them with USCIS, but still not the ---- same value as a good old hand written letter.

If you are saving emails to use for the purpose of establishing your case with USCIS for the I-129F Alien Fiancee Petition or to build your case using the I-130 Family Visa for your Spouse, then here is what you should know.

Both the sponsor and Alien Fiancee or Alien Spouse should remember to only print email letters that have some substance to them. This means, that you need not waste time printing anything out that is only 2 or 3 lines long.

You need to keep emails that are deep with conversation at least if you print out the page you should have a fourth of the page with something on it, but this can also depend on what size fonts you are using.

Never include emails that have arguments in them and never include emails that are using derogative talk, as this could become incriminating towards you.

Cons

With Emailing

►		Throughout the years, USCIS has uncovered what they call sham relationships between couples who shared each other email passwords. It has been known that some couples have gone into each others email accounts and altered dates, letters and information to better their case. Unfortunately this has given emailing a bad view with USCIS, thus causing them to scrutinize electronically sent letters.

►		USCIS considers a couples email letters to be very little value in comparison to hard copy letters. If your email letters are very informative as we have said above and put together neatly according to date then placed in a folder, then they may get some attention, but honestly not the same attention as hard copy letters (postal letters).

►		USCIS originally required postal letters as a means to provide good hard proof of an ongoing relationship. They feel that this means is far better because it truly shows who both sponsor and beneficiary are. They feel that putting a hard copy letter in each others hands is more evident because the envelopes show the post offices stamped date. It also allows both sponsor and beneficiary to know the real person that you are, because without email grammar check, spell check and fancy fonts, the real character in each of us come out. In other words hiding behind our computers seems to hide our true character. Hard copy letters tend to carry more weight or value because they are more personal.

FilAm Immigrations is not here to say that your emails won't help you, but we simply want to improve your case when it comes to attending the interview to get an I-129F fiancee visa or an I-130 spousal visa.

We simply want you to know the pros and cons about these methods and what USCIS looks at, in your case before and during the interview with the US Embassy of Manila.

We feel that every case is different and depending on many circumstances, you and your loved one may or may not need to shore up in areas that are weak. That is why we offer our free consultation to you, so that we can review what you have done and find out where you both stand before filing a case.

The importance of this information can be the one thing that puts you both in the right direction for obtaining the K1/K3 visa that you seek to have. FilAm Immigrations is not the ones who make these rules.

We do want to inform those of you in a more positive way, so that you can have your dreams come true. We are here to inform you of what things could happen and how to avoid mistakes that so many countless others have made.
