Hi, im new here and maybe this is in the wrong forum, in that case im sorry, I have a question, i was reading the faqs of the imigrant visas on the home site of the US consulate in Stockholm Sweden and I ran it to this question (I'll just copy and paste here): I'm divorced; do I require permission from my ex spouse to take my child(ren) out of the country?

And the answer: If you are divorced and you are applying for a visa for your child(ren) by a previous marriage, you will be required to present on the day of your visa interview proof that you have been awarded custody of the child(ren) by the court and that permission has been given for the child(ren) to be taken out of the Sweden.

Ok, so my question is, i am divorced and i do have a child, but it is not my ex husbands child, she has a different father, from a relationship after my divorce. i have had sole custody since her birth. Do i still need permission from her father or court to take her out of the country? We have no papers signed of anything like visitation rights etc.

I would really appreciate it if someone could share some light over this :)

Thank you

Yes you strill have to show proof of custody they will not just take your word. I would see a lawyer. Maybe there's some affidavit to sign.

And depending on the country they may require a DNA test also.

In Nigeria you just have the parent staying sign and say they have permission to take my child and get ity notoraized it may be that easy.

As long as you have court papers stating you have sole custody you should be fine.
