It would have been better if you married here before she got pregnant because then your insurance could have coverred her, not it will be preexisting condition. The K-3 process got my wife here in 5 months.

I think most insurance companies don't count pregnancy as a pre-existing condition.

Hola Byron!!

Congratulations!!!! WOW...you sure on a WILD roller coaster ride!!!! Are you having fun? :dance:

Now that your baby is PREGNANT....have you thought about where the baby will be born?

Since this event is not covered on any insurance plan, it might be less expensive for her to have the baby in Colombia. But, that means leaving her in Bogota until the birth...and for some time afterwards. Or, if she comes to the US before the birth of the baby...the costs of having a baby here are really pretty expensive....and it will all be coming out of your pocket. :wacko: That...plus the costs of your wedding, Immigration petition for Leidy, Examinations for Immigration, Maternity visits to the doctors in Bogota, administration of the needed shots/vaccinations for your fiance to come on the K1 Visa, etc.

I agree with the person who posted..."should have gotten married first." But, now that is another matter.

Also, have you thought about the fact that...well, I think you have lots of things to think about. Final thing...I think you need not worry about what your future mother-in-law is doing in Canada. You are applying to bring YOUR fiance to the USA for marriage. If you are asked for information, give it. But, don't volunteer it. (As an aside...it could be brought up by USCIS that it appears that "Her Family/Leidy" are attempting to leave Colombia by all possible means...possibly raising a red flag. Just a thought.)

Sincere Best Wishes, Think positive thoughts

Hi Byron,

Even if you get your GF/Fiancee' to the USA...AND if you marry her before the baby is born...you health insurance will NOT cover any event or "pre-existing condition." Insurance companies are not in the practice or business of providing coverage for "retroactive" events. Think of it this way...you are not going to get automobile insurance to cover an accident that you had last month with your car.

Insurance companies are not interested in "buying a claim" that for sure must be paid. Once she is your wife and added to your health insurance plan and you begin paying additional premium for her coverages...then claims after that will be paid according to the terms of the policy. For example, if a person has diabetes as a "pre-existing condition," they are not going to get coverage for their insulin. Diabetes will be excluded. However, if the same person is injured in an automobile accident, those injuries would be covered. Consequently, if your (then) wife gets pregnant AFTER you are married for your second child...then, you will have coverage for maternity.

Sincerely...and many good wishes!!! :dance: I am very happy for you.

Craig
