I'm in almost similar situation: fiancee has 2 girls (4yrs and 1 yr old). So her mother will be allowed at St Lukes to help with the kids. Will she be allowed inside the US Embassy also to help with the kids? Thanks.

Really?..even if the kids are only 4 and 1 years old?...

I have an uncle a senior citizen who was interviewed last 2nd week of June. He has known a little English and can not speak even Tagalog, so my cousin was allowed to go with him at the interview inside the USEM...Maybe senior citizens has privilege that minor kids don't ?...

Special needs for elderly yes like walking and assisting. I'm not sure how your cousin got inside when they could provide translator from inside USEM if you request it.

The kids have their mom so that should be alright. The mom needs someone to watch her belongings as they have limitation as what you could bring in.

That could be it..My uncle walks so slow, so maybe that is the reason why my cousin was allowed entry inside the embassy

No passport needed to go with her inside St. Lukes and yes she can go with her inside to help .

At the embassy i am not sure if the rules has changed but my mom was with my 2 kids (10 and 7 that time).

When i did the CRBA for my 2 month old son my mom was with me inside the embassy .

Her mom will be allowed entry to USEM. Just tell mom to bring a valid ID just in case USEM asks.

When my hubby and our 3 kids (aged 4, 5 and 6) went to their interview last Sept 2011, I was allowed to accompany them inside USEM.
