Four Names on Birth Certificate - 3 Spaces on I129F Form

[keithNvaleria 0]

Hello Forum: I have been lurking on this site for awhile and finally my first post. I am a US Citizen and have been in a 4 plus year relationship with a Honduran woman who resides in Costa Rica and has Costarican Residency. I have been to Costa Rica 20 times over the past 5 years, staying 2 weeks or more each time. She has 2 children from a previous non-marital relationship. Both have the same Costa Rican father, but one was born in Honduras and has a Honduran Birth Certificate and Passport and one has a Costarican Passport and Birth Certificate. To make things more interesting, she gave birth to my child in 2007 and he has a Costarican Birth Certificate and US Consular Report of Birth Abroad, US Passport and US Social Security Card. The children from the previous relationship think of me as their "Popi" and I have provided their support for the last 4 plus years. My fiance already has permission to take them out of the country ( Permiso de Salida ) on a permanent basis. It is our intent, to file for a K1 and K2 visa and bring them to the US. Now...for my first question. My fiance and the 2 origional children each have 4 names on their birth certificate and passport. The I 129 F form has only 3 spaces. How do I list them in the application. I will give a fictitious example name of " Nora Mercie Menendez Alous ". Would someone kindly put them in the proper form? This may seem convoluted, but it is a legitimate question. Thanks in advance...and PS....I will have more questions later.

Anytime I didn't have room on the form I added a supplemental sheet.

The two apellidos go in the same space that says family name. So first name is Nora, middle name is mercie and family name is Menendez Alous. This is how it was done for my Mexican fiance on our 129F and it wasn't a problem.

OK, now I have another question. Is anyone up on the Legal Immigration Family Equity (LIFE) Act of 2000, Public Law 106-553.Section1103? It supposedly allows admission of spouses and family members of pending or approved petitions. I am wondering if this would apply because we have the one child together, who is already established as a US Citizen.

I'm not familiar with the law but I don't think it's going to get your loved ones here any quicker. There are lots of folks here who have children together.

As far as the names, if there is any question simply add an attachment and note the attachment on the I-129f (and/or other forms). Be sure to sign and date the attachment and note at the top what form and question it pertains to.

Make a Supplemental sheet with name on it. Signed it and date it.

Look forward to more of your questions, I used to cat around in South America Region a lot a few years ago, had some good times down there...
