Huh? No it won't. Your wife will be approved/denied regardless of the baby, based on the merits of the application you sent in.

as far as i know, the case will continue as normal.

and after the child is born u can get a CRBA done.

first what is a CRBA? and secondly would she have to remind in Jamaica until the child is born?

CRBA: http://kingston.usembassy.gov/report_birth_abroad.html

It depends on the circumstances of when the child is due and if the visa is already issued.

If you don't meet the residency requirements of CRBA, no US passport for the baby, hence you will have to file a separate i-130 for the child.

I don't see why a pregnancy should affect your CR1 application.

Most likely if you can file for your wife you should be able to apply for crba.. Don't worry. You have been given your options.. If your wife gets her visa before she gives birth and she can still travel. Then she can give birth there.. If she gives birth before the visa comes then CRBA is the best way.. Goodluck. I am praying that she can travel before she gives birth

1/ if ur wife gets her visa before the delivery, she can give birth in America.

2/ if ur wife doesnt get her visa in time, she will give birth in Jamaica but thereafter, u can apply for CRBA.

3/ if for whatever reason u dont qualify for CRBA, u will have to do the whole i130 process for the child.

CRBA: Consular Report of Birth Abroad.

US Citizenship at Birth.

My wife was pregnant during our application process. It won't stop the process, but the problem may be when it comes to medical. If she needs shots or more importantly a chest x-ray for the medical, that may be an issue. You'll have to research the chances/side effects for a chest xray while pregnant and decide for yourself if the risk is worth it.

Good luck in your journey.

It wont stop the process, that person don't know what

they are talking about, and if your husband is a USC

you can register the birth of baby at consulate cbra,

only way it would affect anything is if she receive visa

at say 8 mths into pregnancy the airlines will not allow

her to fly then until after birth.

Hey Guys! I just want to jump in here. He would like to know IF the process will be DELAYED because his wife is PREGNANT and as we all know SHE HAS to do MEDICAL. So will the MEDICAL delay the process ? Kindly explain that to him and to other persons who maybe in the same situation. Thanks.

to deal with the issue that medical might come before pregnancy or that she might have to fly during last months of pregnancy, just delay the process after your file reaches NVC. If you are proactive at NVC stage, they things get faster, if not just wait for them to send paper copies and that way things can be delayed accordingly.

very worried now as a friend told me the pregnance will stop the process or reject it until the baby is born

your friend is wrong.
