Bring the daughter of us citizen in US

[n+alisa2006+l 0]

I am american citizen and I have a 16-months old daughter, who is in Russia now.When I filled papers for K-1 visa, my fiancee now wife was pregnant, that is why the name of my daughter was not on the petition. She was born in Russia and birth certificate do not have my name.

Now my wife is here in the USA and what should we do to bring her here, what application to fill out? is it some way we can establish paternity here in the USA?

Thank you all for help!

Why did the birth certificate not have your name

Why did you not register her as a USC?

That would be a question for the Russian authorities.

Check into fileing a n-600.

An N-600 would be in order - after he gets his name on the birth certificate or some other legal document proving he is the father I would think.

Take a look at these links!

I don't know if the N-600 is applicable at this time. May be worth a try tho.

Who is the daughter staying with? I'm surprised you didn't resolve this issue when your wife got her K1 before coming to USA.

If it really is your daughter, you should register her birth with the U.S. consulate and apply for a U.S. passport for her. You probably will have to go to the consulate to do this. To prove paternity, there are a number of ways, including DNA testing. When you start applying to register U.S. citizen birth abroad, the embassy will review the circumstances and your existing evidence (birth certificate) and ask for additional evidence as needed.
