My apologies if this is the wrong spot, I didn't see a K-2 section. 

 

Help! 😆 So my fiance and her daughter have their interviews next week. My fiance has gathered up documentation and receive medical exams etc. The girl's father has suddenly decided not to sign a notarized letter of consent. We are freaking out a bit because she already has an appointment scheduled. Can she move forward with the interview appointment and take the husband to court afterwards? I'd imagine this will complicate things, but I just don't know to what extent or if we can overcome it. My fiance is from Mexico.

 

I'm assuming canceling the appointment wouldn't be a good idea either?

Welcome to the forum!

 

Others here will comment and perhaps offer differing advice.

My suggestion is that you attend the interview and gain advice from the consular officer.

How old is she

 

sounds like the Mother will not come without the child 

 

What does the father want

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Calling your fiancee's baby daddy "husband" is not compatible with successfully getting a K1 visa.  They are not married at this time, are they?

Sorry, I meant her "ex husband" typo. No They are not married. He was not very involved in her daughters life for a long while and only more recently wanted to start seeing her on weekends. My fiance allowed this because she want the daughter to have the opportunity to know her father if she wanted to. He is very irresponsible, often cancels or cuts visits short, provides very little financial support, etc.

She just turned 7. The mother will not come without the child and I wouldn't never want her to make choice like that. The daughter lives primarily with the mother and the father sees the daughter occasionally on weekends though is even fickle with those visits. 

I feel like the father is only doing this to hurt his ex, my fiance.

This is not unusual at all, and in fact it might be more usual than not.

You'll have to find a way to convince him or, more likely, pay him off.

(This would be a wonderful world if only it weren't for the people in it...)

The legalities should really have been dealt with before you started the process, but that is crying over spilt milk.

 

She needs a Family Lawyer, I certainly do not know how Mexican Law works, if this is at all possible.

 

I have seen cases in the past where a financial inducement has helped.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
