Posts: 807Followup: Bringing a Pinay to the USA on a Tourist Visa
Gentlemen. Thank you for all of the replies and advice. Let me respond.
I've know this pinay for maybe ten years. She is over 25, single and has one child. Familiar pinay story. She has a university degree, actually a fairly substantive one (not hotel management), but does not have a "real job" at the moment. She has worked overseas and returned to the Philippines when her contract was up. She has been corresponding and talking with the guy in the US for more than four years. As I mentioned in my original post, the guy is a US citizen of an appropriate age and has a professional job in a very vanilla industry and doesn't fit the mold of someone who would bring over a girl to traffic.
I brought my Asian wife to the US on a K-1 so I'm very familiar with relationship evidence and have advised her how to build a portfolio.
The problem is financial and propensity to return to the Philippines. We can build a fairly good roots case based on her child and family ties. It's the financial thing that worries me.
Mr. Ent: he's a US guy with credible career. I'm thinking of advising her that she needs to develop a financial package that includes his commitment to support the trip.
Blushes: Thanks for your comment. She has an overseas work history but not a professional career.
Aske: Yep, I'm aware of the departure probs. She will need to have evidence with her. The same as she used for the visa.
Kabul: Yep, I agree the system is wired to denial.
Thanks again guys for you inputs. Does anyone know of a case where a USA tourist visa was approved based, in part, on financial responsibility from the guy she was visiting?

The laws and rules on visa's and immigration are very complex and then the actual enforcement is left up to a relatively low level administrator who is paying his or her dues before moving up in the system. They will never be blamed for denying someone entry but will be blamed f someone they issue a visa to breaks the rules. This is not only an American phenomena but one I have seen just about everywhere. Of course the current political climate in the US does not help, with all the press on illegal immigration.

Posts: 451Difficult if the girls is not a professional; as in a trade other than in the sex trade. If visiting family members, they get also suspicious. But can be done.

I have helped several friends get a visa, but these were by no means desolate chicks that would depend on my care. The times that we had seen each other I would always make sure to take pictures together in different situations showing that we have a history together and I didn't just meet this person on the internet last night. Then I would make a letter saying they would stay with me on such and such dates and include a picture of my passport and driver's license on the letter. The girl would take the letter and all of our photos to the interview with her. But like I said, these were chicks with places to live and jobs to return to. If you are just trying for some educationless, jobless scalawag to come see you then they pretty much know it is sex trafficking. And in the words of Judge Judy, it ain't going to happen.

Posts: 807Bringing a Pinay to the USA on a Tourist Visa
Does anyone have experience with bringing a pinay to the USA for a few weeks on a tourist visa? The girl will need to apply for the visa and the gentleman will need to assume financial support for that trip. In looking around on the web I think you can do this by affidavit. The guy has a good job in a very vanilla industry so hopefully there will not be a suspicion of sex trafficking.
Any experiences, hints or suggestions?

I saw that at an adjacent gate once, the passenger arrived a minute after they opened the baggage compartment and was denied boardimng. They were not happy and everyone within ear shot of them know it.

I have been delayed numerous times all over the world by the need to remove checked bags from the plane that belong to someone who checked in the bag but didn't board.
It even happened on a domestic flight Sydney to Melbourne.

I fly a lot and at times we are delayed as someone has checked in the bags, not appeared at the gate and these must be removed. It is a real pain when that happens especially on a full A380 but better safe than sorry.
As for the smaller carries and the more third world countries this can be slap dash at best.

All of that being said I have chatted a few CP flight attendants a bit of flirting and gotten zero phone numbers or any real attention or interest. Hey generally seem to be well educated and remunerated. They work long shifts.
