Is crba denial letter required for childs visa immigration

[abcdefjah 0]

Hello, I would like have your opinion on our case. My husband was born here in the Phils. He got his US citizenship through CRBA. He was also raised here, stayed until 2010 and move to the US. The only time that he went there was for vacations when his dad was still alive. And I as i have understand based on my research and our lawyer's explanation our daughter is not eligible for the CRBA process since my husband did not reside in the US for 5 years prior to our daughters birth. We are having our petition right now and our daughter is included. So my question is should we acquire a denial letter from the US Embassy cause i've read that it will be of a big help for our visa interview. What can you advise? Apply for a crba application so we can obtain the denial letter and present it to the consul or this is not necessary? We are still in the nvc stage. Im sorry for the long explanation. But i will really appreciate if you take the time to reply to our case. Thank you very much and God bless.

You mention "our petition" which is singular meaning one petition. When a USC petitions a spouse, children are not included. Did your husband file separately for your child? He will need to do that.

A CRBA denial is not needed since your husband does not meet the residency requirement.

hi

I was thinking the same thing, she is not included, her information was, but that doesn't mean she was petitioned

Children of USC parents are filed separately, so if your husband didn't file a separate i130 for his daughter, then he must do that immediately

In my experience for my son and have interview last week may 3,2016. I will say yes you need denial letter from crba. If you don't want any hassle later on. I already have the letter sometime last year but my mom mistake was not bringing it at the interview for my son. The interviewer may see that your husband is us citizen so the child may possible claim for us citizenship and will ask you to try or if you already did show the denial letter or no claim letter at the time of the interview. My son case still on AP and waiting for them to email us. Goodluck

Better to spend a little extra money now and save the possible heartache later.
