Will this affect the fiance visa process? Obviously I didn't know before sending the application so I am afraid they will think I am hiding something or that she only wants to come to the US to have a baby. We have been together for four years with me having lived with her for 2 of those 4 in Mexico. My NOA1 was sent this week. Will I have a chance to disclose this information when I receive the NOA2? Or will she "show up" to the interview pregnant, causing the consular officer to scrutinize her a bit more. Do I need to take paternity tests? Here on VJ some have said "it makes no difference" but I am skeptical. She was denied a tourist visa to visit my parents in the US in 2012 so I am very wary of their decision-making processes. I could easily see them telling her that "I should have married her" and then tell her that I should file the I-130.

No issue. She'll be done with the whole K1 process way before she gives birth.

I hope so man. I was 100% prepared to be apart from her during the whole visa process; however, being apart while she is pregnant with our first child will be challenging. I can only visit once a month.

You only claim children when they are born, so paperwork wise you don't have to send or add anything. I'm pregnant and I didn't add anything this time with my I-129F. The first time I did the I-129F I was pregnant and I did include that information, and I don't think it didn't really made any difference. So you can include it, or leave it out, but it won't make a difference. If she has the child in the US and you don't get married, she'll still have to leave with or without the child, so from their point of view it doesn't matter.

Yeah that's correct, it won't matter at this point. My fiancee is 7-weeks pregnant so I mentioned it in our petition, solely in an effort to fully disclose everything. But at the time you filed your fiancee wasn't pregnant so yours is a different story. But even so, as others have mentioned it won't matter until the birth actually happens anyway, so don't let it bother you.
