Hello everyone, i really need you guys help on what's the next step going to be after my fiance gave birth.

I've sent out the I-129F at the beginning of September 2008. I got the NOA1 a week later, now it has been almost 5 months.

My fiance was pregnant at the time, and yesterday she gave birth to our new baby boy. My question is, what are the next steps for me and my fiance ?

such as paper work (form) , DNA test, etc. please help, thank you very much

Go to the website of the closest US Consulate and obtain the instructions and/or forms for filing a Consular Report of Birth Abroad for your son. They'll inform you whether any DNA test is required before granting the US Passport for the child. Your I-129F/K1 case will proceed as normal.

Congratulations on the birth of your son! Here's the direct link for reporting a birth in Vietnam:

http://hochiminh.usconsulate.gov/report_of_birth_abroad.html

I am assuming that you are not married since you didn't mention a I-130. The D.N.A. test is required.

Birth Abroad Out-of-Wedlock to a U.S. Citizen Father: A child born abroad out-of-wedlock

to a U.S. citizen father may acquire U.S. citizenship under Section 301(g) and 309 (a) of the INA provided:

* a blood relationship between the child and the father is established by clear and convincing evidence;

* the father must have had the nationality of the United States at the time of the child's birth;

* the father had been physically present in the United States for a period of five years, two of which were after the age of fourteen;

* while the person is under age of 18 years -

a- the father submits recognisition of child born out of wedlock under the law of their residence or domicile,

b- the father (unless deceased) must submit a notarized Affidavit of Paternity and Financial Support or

c- the paternity of the applicant is established by adjudication court.

Birth Abroad Out-of-Wedlock to a U.S. Citizen Mother: A child born abroad out-of-wedlock to a U.S. citizen mother may acquire U.S. citizenship under Section 301(g) and 309 © of the INA if the mother was a U.S. citizen at the time of the child's birth, and if the mother had previously been physically present in the United States or one of its outlying possessions for a continuous period of one year.

I would go ahead and get a D.N.A. test done even if I was doing a K-3 or IR/CR1. They have been known to ask for one to be done when the beneficiary interviews. I'd beat them to the punch.

A DNA test may be required but the "clear and convincing evidence" could be as simple as a doctor's statement as to date of conception combined with evidence the petitioner was present with the beneficiary mother in country overlapping any date range in which the conception took place.

Maybe. You know how this Consulate is though. They may ask for video evidence of the moment of conception.

If i get all the required evidence, it's best for me to send all the required paper work to my fiance in Vietnam, then she can bring it to the US Embassy over in Vietnam right?

I also have another question, in the CRBA form, it asked for the baby's birth certificate number. That means my fiance should get a birth certificate for the baby first before filing the CRBA?

please help thank you very much

I would assume that you would need the Birth Certificate. It says only one parent has to be present for the appointment, so it appears your fiance could do it. It also says to schedule the appointment 3 months in advance. I'd get cracking on it, while making sure I did everything right!
