SD FILAMEDA, with CTFLC, proudly joined the Olympian High School students and their adviser, Gng. Grace Almazar, in a meaningful outreach activity.

The Filipino Dance Club shared love and joy with the residents and staff of ActivCare Facility in Chula Vista. The program served as a heartfelt tribute from the younger generation, beautifully expressed through Filipino cultural dances.

SD FILAMEDA always supports school activities that showcase Filipino culture—especially our values of love, respect, and honoring our elders. We thank G. Salvador Idos for allowing us to have this event. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the students, Gng. Almazar, Olympian High School, and the parents who accompanied their children to perform at the facility.

Mabuhay po kayo! 🇵🇭

[ADVISORY] J-1 EXCHANGE VISITOR VISA IS NOT A PATH TO U.S. CITIZENSHIP

The Philippine Embassy in Washington DC reminds the public that the J-1 Exchange Visitor Program visa is a temporary, non-immigrant program designed for cultural exchange. It is not an employment/work visa.

Filipino teachers should be aware that participation in the program does not lead to U.S. permanent residency or citizenship. Please be reminded of the terms of the program:
• J-1 teachers are required to return to the Philippines after completing the program
• Filipino teachers are subject to the two-year home-country physical presence requirement. Waiver of this requirement is difficult to obtain, not guaranteed, and requires exceptional hardship or highly meritorious circumstances.
• Overstaying in the United States beyond the authorized period of stay is a serious violation of U.S. immigration law, and can result in deportation and long-term bans.

The Embassy has received reports of illegal recruiters, unscrupulous agents, and individuals posing as immigration lawyers who:
• Demand large sums of money for immigration assistance
• Promise U.S. permanent residency or citizenship through the J-1 program, and
• Encourage overstaying, misusing visas, or filing asylum claims solely to remain in the United States

Teachers who are J-1 visa holders or applicants are urged to participate in the program only with a clear understanding of its objectives and limitations. Those considering long-term immigration options must seek advice from a qualified U.S. immigration attorney.

For questions, please contact the Philippine Embassy (https://tinyurl.com/wdcpedirectory) or your nearest Philippine consulate (https://tinyurl.com/yck559z8)
