Hingi po sna ko ng advice.Ask ko lng po kung may nakakaalam kung paano po mag gawa ng correction for non migrating family members. Nalaman po kc namin na ang meaning daw po ng non migrating family member is that dependent sila ng visa applicant. Isinama ko po kc mother, mother in law and brother ko which is di po dependent as they have their own source of income.
Sabi po run sa nabasa ko, ay magfill up daw ng form 1023 to remove the aforementioned family members from visa application. Should I proceed with the form or should I wait for the CO advise. If anyone have experienced such case, please advise us po as we do not want the application to delay. Kahapon lng po kami natapos ng lodging (and payment completed). Thanks po.
