POE with step daughter

[Lefty90 0]

Hello all, my step daughters visa recently has been approved and it arrived today. I am going to pay the 165 fee tomorrow. Unfortunately my wifes visa was denied due to her 10 year ban, so I wanted to know what do I have to bring with me to enter the U.S. With my step daughter? We have a notarized paper signed by her biological father allowing her to live in the U.S. But it only states my wifes name and not mine. Is that an issue and what else do I need?

Dont think its an issue, was biological dad in the

picture & agreed to her leaving if not should not be

a prob

It shouldn't be an issue since the visa was issued.

So I do not need to present any documments at the POE, I am the only one traveling with my step daughter. I do not need anything else?

just to be sure, if i were you, not sure if it is required but i would get something in writing from your wife giving you permission to take the child since she will not be going with you. just in case.

what it the $165 fee for?

Mexico usually requires some sort of travel consent letter. I traveled to Cancun with my little sister and brother, and we had a letter from our dad for my little brother and my sister's BC showing my mother had sole custody.
