[victorbrown 0]

my son was born 3 months ago , i just went down and signed birth certificate and got married

This is in costa rica we dont want to live full time in the states just august thru december during the rainy season.

I belive i might be able to do direct consular filing in costa rica

I just bought a farm in maine so i have to be here right now.

I was told when i was down there that it will take a month to a month and a half to get originals of marriage and birth certificates.

I asked some questions to this website before i forget the username i had then.

Because i was waiting for a dna test , all the answers were about love and dont get married and stuff like that.

So just to stop the love questions i do love her we had one problem i am a moutain jungle mqan and she was a city girl. I was just down for 2 months and now she has the baby she doesnt get bored out in the boonies.

We fine and happy and i love her.

So we got married 2 weeks ago i signed the birth certificates.

Whats next.

Thank You

Not really sure what you can do honestly, if you dont' plan on living full time in the US, even a green card for her isn't going to be very helpful.

As a green card recipient, I don't think she can live half the year in the US and half the year in Costa Rica. You may want to make an IPASS appointment with an immigration office to ask them what your options are.

I dont care about her working here i just need to be able to travel back and forth with her and baby without visa hassles.

We will live in costa rica most of the time.

Thank you

To make an infopass appointment follow these steps:

Click on make an appointment

Enter your zip code and Country

Select you wish to speak to an immigration officer

Select a day and then print out the appointment letter to bring with you to the office. You need the letter to get in.

Hope that helps

I would start by getting your child there rightful U.S. citizenship and U.S. passport. You will need to apply at the Embassy for a Consular Report of Birth Abroad of a citizen of the United States of America and a U.S. passport this will illiminate half of the problem Good luck with everything else

You can do direct consular filing in Costa Rica, and I recommend it. MUCH faster than filing in the US. Both you and your wife have to be there though for the first interview when you file. You will need the original marriage certificate, do you have that yet? If not, they will start a provisional file for you and you will have to come back when you have the original certificate.

I just went down and got married and signed the birth certificate and was told it would take a month or 2 for those to go thru the system. I am now in the states for a couple of months.
