I-129F Fiancee with child

[E&R4ever 6]

I recently sent my I-129F and appropriately filled out my "soon to be" step child's information on the I-129F. I also included a translated copy of his birth certificate along with a copy of the letter of intent signed by his natural father giving him permission to exit the country. My question is how and when will I be able to start his K2 Visa or is it automatic for him to be included with the initial I-129F? A little clarification is what I am needing since the K1 package does not quite describe it. Thanks ahead of time!

So there should not be any problem with obtaining both the K1 and K2 Visas at the point of K1 Visa approval? There are no known issues with my case and the father is 100% O.K. with everything. I realize for you it may be speculative, but just the 'consulate process' appears to be in parallel with the I129-F. I just inquire because I want to avoid getting the approved K1, yet not have the K2 approved at the same time. We wish to travel together and no one to be left behind. Thanks!

The I-129f and consulate processes are not parralel. The consulate process does not start until they have an approved petition.

The K-2 is part of the K-1 process. Assuming all your factors are acceptable by the U.S. embassy in Peru, the child's visa will be approved with the mothers. Just make sure that everything is in accordance with the laws of Peru.

Just so you know, a child under age 21, can follow the parent within one year of the parent's visa issuance date. It sounds in this case that the child is young and will be accompanying the mother. It should not be a problem for you.

My soon to be stepson is 8 1/2 y/o. I appreciate everyone's response and will journey forth into next year with much anticipation of a family reunion here in the states. My best wishes to everyone here at VJ and God Bless everyone in their journeys. Happy Holidays to all!!!

Best regards,

For the I-129F, only the name of the child needs to be listed...be sure to include all of her children.. not just the one's that will accompany her.

The BC of the child, letter of approval, etc, are part of the visa application that gets submitted to the consulate.
