Marry With Children!!! What's the worse may happen?

[Thai Pham 0]

Here is the situation :

4 years ago I had a daughter with my now ex-girlfriend. I put in my SSN# at the hospital to accept that's my daughter etc. so I'm legally the father of my child .

3 years ago my fiancee in Vietnam got pregnant with her now x-boyfriend and gave birth to her daughter . The fact is after 4 months of prenancy, the father of the kid found out it was a girl so he left both of them until now. so her daughter never had a father legally or spritually . even in the paper the father name is UNKNOWN .

so now I'm filling the K1 , my fiancee parents don't want her grand-daughter to go over here (USA) with us, because she raised the kid since she was 1 year old (my fiancee must work to support the whole family)and they can't live without her now . It won't be a problem for me if she(my fiancee)brings the kid with her, but she told me let's wait until her daughter grows older.

So what should I do ? what steps do I need to do ? Do you have the similar problem and how did you resolved it ? Will the consular officer focus on the children factor ?

Thank you ,

TP

Fact:

1. You've and your "fiance" never been married or registered your marriage with anyone officially (both US and VN government) Yes/no?

2. Do you pay child support to the mother of your child in the US?

This is what I think:

1. If you say yes, you need the divorce decreed. If you say no, none issue!

2. This will affect your I-134 Affidavit of support form, your poverty guideline will be adjusted to cover both you, your child, your fiance and if your fiance's daughter comes along. (4 people)

About the daughter, you can apply for her and her mother to come along. I'm not sure if your fiance needs a permisiion from the daughter's father to leave the country. Clear that up with a good lawyer if you need one, we can recommend but not through Public forum. Many of us talks about the famous lawyer here on VJ Vietnamese specific case. But yeah, she can bring her daughter along with her or you can later petition to bring the child here once her mother arrives. But just to give you an idea...

Hope I answer your question.... others please chime in...

Question 1 = No

Question= N0

I dont think her ex-boyfriend does not have any power to permit her leave the country. He left her and the kid since she was in her 4th month pregnancy . I'm shooting an email to that laywer as we speak.
