hi all,

my fiance is in the process of getting everything together in anticipation of packet 3 from CD Juarez in a few months. But, I have a question regarding her daughter. I understand that she would need a notarized letter signed by her ex-husband allowing for her daughter to immigrate to the US. My question is how long would that letter be valid?

He is in her town now, but she fears he may take off soon and she might not get a chance to get him to sign anything. If she gets the letter signed and notarized now, would that still be valid when we have our appointment (presumably this summer - july or august)? Is there an expiration in other words?

I know this can vary per consulate so if anyone has specific CDJ info, that would be appreciated. Thanks all!

Also, I should add that I wouldn't mind contacting the consulate directly, but not sure if anyone can guide me on the best way to contact them? I didn't see an email for General inquiries, but I saw contact info for a lot of other requests. Maybe I missed it. I just prefer to email rather than call since it's hard for me to get away from my desk while at work. Thanks.

Email the consulate and ask. They know for sure what they accept and get this question all the time. It may be consulate-specific.

Best to inquire at the embassy. When you do ask if they have a specific format to follow. Also ask if the letter needs to be in Spanish as well as translated to English with his signature on both.

The policy on letters varies by the laws of the countries the consualte is in. The US consulate MUST comply with the laws of the country they are in regarding the immigration of children. They are NOT going to be complicit in "kidnapping"

That said, the consulate requires that the letter authorize PERMANENT relocation to the United States and as such there is no "expiration date" There cannot be or they would not issue a visa with immigrant intent.
