US Visa and process for a Filipino citizen

Hi guys,

My mother is 63 years old and just passed the US citizenship test. She will be going through her naturalization ceremony soon. To give more background, she is my only family member living in the US and she has been married to my American step-father for more than 7 years now. Also, she had cancer and already 3 years cancer-free according to her doctor although she has maintenance medicine and regular check-up.

Moving on to my background, I'm a single Filipino Male going 29 this year, a college undergraduate of 2 years. I'm currently employed, I already have a good career here in the Philippines in the Data Analytics field (6 years working experience in Data Analytics plus another 2 years in another field) and had been employed with well-known international companies.

So here are my questions:

​

  1. What US Visa can I apply for to work in the US?
  2. What are the chances of getting denied getting my philippine US Visa approved considering I have a mother who is already a citizen?
  3. What would be the documents I will need to prepare?
  4. Where and how can we start processing my papers?
  5. How much will everything cost in terms of my application and processing?

​

Thank you in advance! I'll have more follow-up questions as I get answers to these questions.

N-400 form {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} message

A few questions: I filed my N400 naturalization on March 23, 2020. Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...

Navigating the U.S. Family-Based Immigration Visa Process

For families hoping to immigrate to the United States, the visa process can be overwhelming. With so much uncertainty and complexity involved, it's important to have a clear understanding of the steps and requirements. The first step is determining which family-based immigration visa applies to you. There are two types: immediate relatives and family preference. The former includes spouses, parents, and unmarried children under the age of 21 who are U.S. citizens. Family preference visas are for more distant relatives such as siblings, married children of U.S. citizens, and spouses and unmarried children of permanent residents. Once you know which visa you're eligible for, you'll need to file a petition with USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services). This step requires providing documentation such as birth certificates and marriage licenses, as well as proof of your relationship to the U.S. citizen or permanent resident sponsoring you. After your petitio...
