IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresNew Baby before final Interview?
QUOTE (sachinky @ Nov 12 2009, 12:55 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
If the baby's mother is a USC, the child is also a USC. And I'm assuming your wife is a USC, otherwise how did she file a I-130 for you?


The baby cannot be a US citizen because my wife didnt live in USA for the required period after her birth there (At least 5 years are requried)

firstly, you are not interviewing for a greencard but a visa. greencards are only issued after you arrive in the USA


If the baby does not have a claim to US citizenship (which you say he/she does not) then AFAIK then the baby will need an I-130 petition.


I know that it is only a visa, I just use the name inter-changably..
Yea the baby doesnt have a calim to US citizenship.. Do you have to do an file a whole new application from the start for the baby?

Respectfully, what are you asking for help with?

You already have the answers to the baby's citizenship. You need to add the baby to the CR1, I would guess. Who and how you do this will depend on the stage you are at with your petition.

I'm confused to how you're filing for CR1 if your wife isn't resident in the US? I'm probably ignorant to the facts, but thought that residence was required by the USC to petition for a CR1 visa.


We cannot apply for a US passport for the baby since my wife didnt live in USA for more than 5 years after her birth there (It is written in your answer), so he cannot be a US citizen for the meantime..
You can file for IR-1 visa even if both US citizen and spouse is living outside US.. there is a whole section here in the forum for DCF (Direct Counsel Filling), which the way we went through.

I want to know what to do now, should I apply a whole new application for the baby, since I almost finished my own process, or there is a way to add my baby to my original application prior to the interview which is next month??

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresNew Baby before final Interview?
Ok here are some facts..

1) I'm the husband and I'm a non-US citizen, my wife is the US citizen and she is sponsering me
2) Our child was born outside USA, and since my wife didnt live in US after her birth there, they said the baby cannot apply for a passprot now but he can apply for a green card then a passport at a later stage
3) I'm in the final stage now which is the interview prior to issuing a green card for me
4) All our family is not in USA now
5) I have not done anything regarding the baby issue, ie, the emabassy is not aware that i have a baby now

thanks much waiting for your help

Good Day VJs..

I was just granted my visa few days ago. I want to ask about our baby. He was born after I started my green card application and before it was issued. What to do now? How can I get a green card for him? Does he need an interview or medical?

Thank you in advance
