I am filing a K-1, K-2 visa. My fiance is in Russia. We know that the childs father must give permission for the child to immigrate to the U.S.

What does the letter need to say?

What do we need to verify the letter is real?

Is this permission letter to leave Russia or enter the U.S.?

Any and all advice is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Ed

My fiance lives in St. Petersburg. She has a son 14 months old. The father does not support or have anything to do with the child. She was not married to the father. He will not give permission for his son to move to the U.S.She has been told that in order for her to get full custody of her son. She must first file for support from the father. This is from friends not a lawyer. If the father does not pay then she can file for full custody. The judge is on vacation until september.

Does anyone have experience with child custody in Russia?

The father does not support or even spend time with the child. But, he likes to tell people he has a child))

He will not give permission for the child to immigrate. The child is 14 months old and he's seen him 2 times.

The child has the fathers last name and they were never married. So maybe this will be easier if it must go to court. They are in Russia and I am not sure about Russian law. I have read that he can come over with his mothers passport.

I need information on the K-1 process for a woman with a child. There is plenty of info on getting your fiance's paper work started. She will probably need to go to court to get full custody. But beyond that we need help. Do we need a passport photo of the child also? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Wow!! I have known this man since we were 10 or 11 years old.

He has never used drugs!! He is not a junkie!! He doesn't drink or smoke!

He was riding in a car with another ex friend and he had drugs

in the trunk of the car. He was unaware of these drugs.

If I had not know this man most of my life, I would not

believe his luck. Nobody that ever meets him would ever suspect

him of being a criminal. Although he does tell people about it.

Most people think that he is joking with them.

His main problem is the women that he has been dating.

He won't even consider an american woman anymore.

He was not trying to find anyone to marry.

He felt he was better off alone. With that history I can't blame him.

His high school sweetheart is the only decent woman that

I think he has dated. That was 20 years ago!

He has told his Russian friend about this and

they are still pursuing a relationship.

This man has a good job. He is not violent regardless of his record.

I agree with with the IMBRA thing. It is something that should

have been done years ago. I just hope that my friend will not be

hurt because he took the easy way out instead of fighting

My best friend has met a real good woman. Which is surprising considering his past

relationships. He had a drug conviction (felony) 15 years ago.

He lived with a woman for 4 years. She had been in a mental hospital twice.

They only had a relationship for 6 months. They shared a house for 3 1/2 years.

This woman obtained a TPO (temporary protective order ) as an eviction to

move him out of the house. While he was staying at my house in another state

she called 911 several times. Claiming that he was following her or in the front yard etc.

I know for a fact that he was not guilty of this!!

Well anyway one day he was pulled over on the freeway. Had a felony warrant for

stalking. He sat in jail for 6 months without bond. He had plenty of evidence to

support his defense. But, he chose to plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge of stalking.

He would have been in jail another year waiting for a trial(( Plus his attorney was terrible.

Now if that is not too bad here is worse.

His last girlfriend (which I hated ) Turned out to be cheating on her husband.

When he found out he broke off the relationship. She was moving to another

state with her husband and son. The husband moved a month before she and her son.

She started to call my friend and he went to visit her twice.

The day after the second visit her husband was shot in Oklahoma.

We are in South Carolina. 2 years later he was arrested for the crime.

The husband named another person as the assailant and claimed that

he did not think that my friend shot him. They had met in the past when he found out

his girlfriend was married. So the trial is ready to start and the prosecution offers

a plea bargain. My friend accepted it. He went to jail for 5 months and has 3 years of probation.

We thought that he would win the trial but, he was looking at 40-50 years

if he lost.

So his record now consists of 2 felonies, A drug conviction and felon in possession of a deadly weapon.

And a misdemeanor stalking, criminal trespassing,

Will he be able to marry this woman that he has met and bring her to the US?

Your friend seems to be violent, this is why we have this IMBRA thing. not to put innocent woman in the hands of killers,molesters,pediphille and drug addicts. He needs to work out his issues first b/4 putting that woman at risk. You can never trust a junkie. Frankly, looking at this IMBRA thing your friend needs to focus on completing his probation b/4 marrying again. Marrying a foreigner should be last on his list right now.
