we are considering adjusting based on a marriage with a USC, but that marraige hasn't happened and we plan on taking our time and not rush into it. I apologize that it came off that way. Tried to keep it short and to the point but lead to more confusion. Right now we are just considering the possiblity of it in the future and we are asking for future reference. Asking questions like these might be premature but when planning a future, topics like these inevitably comes up and we just want to figure out what we should do if we ever get to that point, and figured that it's probably better to be educated about the process now than last minute.

We are considering adjusting based on a marriage with a USC, and just wondering how I should handle the situation with my ex-gf's child. And yeah I've read a lot of about fathers immigrating wanting to petition their child after. In this situation the child is already going to be USC. So if I list the child in immigration forms, it wouldn't be part of a future petition, but more along the lines of household size in I-864 and potential GMC requirement for child support in N-400, and just being honest in general. It would just seem odd if I say I have a child in I-485 or I-751 but wouldn't be able to provide any name or date of birth..

Oh that's right. I do know that she was really pregnant from the doctor visits and ultrasound, I know it's on the way, and I don't think she will terminate it, I believe it was too late to terminate when we stopped contact. But I won't know anything about the actual birth of the child.

I do know that there is a child since she has updated me with doctor's visits and ultrasound pictures before cutting ties. Still doesn't establish paternity but I do know there is a child on the way. Right now I'm just keeping my distance from her and if she wants to initiate any sort of paternity test, I'll have to accept..I don't plan on initiating it.. Until then I hope that it's safe for me to not declare the child on any immigration forms until after my paternity is established, if it ever gets established..

That's what I thought. I just do not want to leave the child out and then to be seen as not being honest. The I-864 mentions that I have to include the child even if I have no custody, but I don't know if that's only for people that established paternity but no custody, or if it includes my situation where paternity is not established through marriage or DNA test. Theoretically even if the child is biologically mine, without a marriage or DNA test or signing birth certificate to establish paternity, I'm not required to include the child in any immigration forms? I'm not sure if DNA test is something I should request, I'm just worried about her responding with threates and retaliation if I attempted that.

Yes she was my ex gf, we were never married.

My former partner left after getting pregnant. She wants me out of her and the child's life completely, and there is little hope of reaching out without being ignored, or even being retaliated or threatened, Due to this situation, I wouldn't be able to sign birth certificate, or even know the child's name or address or date of birth. Of course there is always a chance that the child isn't mine. In this situation. While filling out the I-864, do I include the child in the household size? For the form I-485, information regarding your children, and in the future I-751, it ask for child's name, date of birth, address and all those information, and I wouldn't be able to provide them other than just simply mentioning the child by putting down 1 in the box asking how many child I have. Is this also something that can affect future N-400? Since I wouldn't be able to provide child support when the mother does not want any involvement from me. Thanks!
