Should I go with fiance visa, or just get married first? (baby involved, too!)

Would your fiance want you to take the baby from her and bring it to the US?

Edit: as a US citizen I believe the child is able to come to and or leave the US whenever.

No I wouldn't split up the wife and baby. In part because I travel at least two weeks per month anyway.

If it were ME, I would want to be with her for the birth. If you cant go there for a period of time at that time but she could come here, legally, with the diplomatic visa, with no deceit involved, I would want that. It isnt that you want the baby born here (such as an anchor baby) to get it citizenship... It already will have that since you are the father. So, unless i am just ignorant, I dont see how it could be wrong for the baby to be born here with you as the USC father and she here legally on a diplomatic visa. Then maybe a month after the birth she could return home and you all could go through the whole immigration process apart as normal.

But if I am wrong about something there, please let me know. It is just that I think the OP is wanting to be together during the birth...something that for me was very, very important to go through, together, when our son was born. Correct me anyone if I am wrong. And I do appologize in advance if I said anything wrong here.

I'll be there for the birth wherever it is. The idea was ideally the kid is born here and she stays here. there is no real point in having the kid born here, and then my wife having to go back to albania for ten months.

I am thinking I will go there ASAP (waiting on a NYC birth certificate to get apostilled). Marry her, start the 10 month process, and then so she ends up here with baby when baby is 3 months old or so.

I have the ability to spend a week or so in albania every month until then.

A Consulate Report of Birth Abroad does not take 10 months. It should take a few weeks to get a passport for the baby.

I think your above plan is a good one. She'll probably be more comfortable giving birth at home anyway
