Have a baby with my us citizen, does he go on my visa?

[MariaElizabeth92 5]

In April of this year me and my American fiancé had a baby who resides with me here in the uk

My fiancé is currently here until August and last month we received our noa2 (FINALLY!!)

I arranged a date for my medical on the 16th of this month and have been asked to send my forms in to the us embassy.

I am wondering where baby slots in!

As he is born to a us citizen we have read he is granted us citizenship already and so on the date of my medical we are also going to the embassy to apply for his passport and to report his birth.

I am wondering if any forms on my k1 visa need to be filed for him even though he will have an American passport?

I'm also wondering whether (as my fiancé returns to the us on the 8th August without me and his son ) whether interviews can be sped up...or how long from sending off the forms and having the medical it takes to get an interview?

Initially planned on returning with my fiancé and baby but doesn't look like this will be the case anymore!

Thanks for your help x

CRBA can take a while. You will want to look into doing it ASAP! Don't wait for your medical.

Please see http://www.visajourney.com/forums/forum/154-consular-reports-of-birth-abroad-crba/ for any questions regarding the CRBA of your son.

Happy to hear you have your NOA2 so now you can move forward. I agree that It doesn't look likely that you'll all return on the same day.

You will not need to include him on the K1 visa however your fiancé will need to include him on the affidavit of support as he is part of your household.

Please look into scheduling an appointment for your baby’s CRBA as soon as possible.

The girl at the next window at my interview appointment was approved but was going to have to wait to move because of a delay with her baby’s CRBA/passport.

The earliest appointment I could get for it was the same day as my medical on the 16th unfortunately. My baby was premature so hasn't been out of hospital for long so we are only able to be doing this now.

I've read it will take about 6 weeks...hopefully not longer, the wait for my NOA2 took forever!!

Thanks for the help!!

can you please

It will take as long as it takes. You have 6 months from the medical date in which to move to the USA (after visa approval) so you should be okay to make sure you have the CRBA and baby's passport (if required... which is likely)
