No it’s optional. It’s just a good idea if you lack some evidence.

I think the title of the thread should be changed. The visa has not been issued and may not even be issued for many months. 

Hi everyone I thought I'd post this for anyone interested. This was done in Canada. 
 
My son was born May 16, 2019. We had an appointment at the consular in Toronto, Ontario for June 6. The building was right downtown so it was easy to find. All the documents we had included confirmation of his appointment, his long form birth certificate, a passport photo, both mine and my fiances passports, as well as W2s for 4 years (supposed to have 5 but I couldn't find 2017) as well as his Highschool GED and utilities (which they only took the W2s) as well as forms DS-2029 and DS-11 for his passport. (We aren't married and no divorces). At the entrance they asked for confirmation of appointment. Then went upstairs after being checked and waited. Went to the desk and they took all original copies and made my fiance sign affadavit of support. We then paid the feeds for CRBA and Passport (came to $215 USD). Then waited for our interview. When we went up we swore oath that our statements were true. Asked us how we met, where we live. They said we only had 4 years of evidence of citizenship but it was no problem and said we'll have his forms in 2 weeks which we did receive them in that time frame. Took a total of roughly an hour and a half to 2 hours just waiting for the interview took the longest. Overall was not a difficult process! 

Hi! So me and my fiance applied for K1 in August of last year. I got pregnant end of september. We were lucky because we only live 35-40min away from eachother. It was stressful having to cross constantly to see eachother. We delayed my Montreal interview by 2 monta so i could give birth in canada. I had my son may 16. We then went the following month to do my medical exam in toronto as well as applied for crba and american passport for our son. At the end of june I did my Montreal interview and passed. During the interview when i stated we had a baby she made a remark thats all the proof they need to know were together lol. We crossed july 2. Were both covered under my husbands insurancr. So far everything is great here. I am glad I was able to give birth in Canada and because I did i still get my 1 year maternity pay leave. As for the AOS increase it made no difference for us as my husband still makes way over the requirement. 
 
I had my baby shower originally in the US so all my items including car seat etc was american. 

Fill out the application for CRBA and submit it to the embassy.
You need to demonstrate 5 years of physical presence in the US

I used a combination of tax records, school records, and old passports

Just got my tracking number! Hoping it comes tomorrow as Monday is a holiday 🙏

Oh ok! It says non-immigrant above AP.

1. This has been kind of a toss up, we've had someone mention they let U.S. passport petitioners in. Some people have said they don't let any petitioners in. I'd try getting in if you are going to be in MTL anyway. 
2. Yup!
3. Did not get ours on Friday (got it the following Thurs in Vancouver, issued/shipped on that Mon or Tues). Once they hit "issued" they typically get to you pretty fast, 2-3 days. But be mindful there is always a chance of AP, the time it takes the passport to return is more based on how long it takes to be issued. 

My date changed on the 14th. Nothing since! Just came in mail today.

I just wanted to give my insight as I'm Canadian and having my baby here before crossing on my k1 Visa to be with my fiance! So to cross the border you only technically require the birth certificate which can take around 2 weeks to obtain. But they will most likely deny you without the CRBA. You can't apply for the CRBA until you have the long form birth certificate. Then you apply for CRBA which you book an interview online which requires you and your spouse and the baby to go to (closest for me is Toronto). You then get an American passport and SSN number for the baby! I'm not sure if it matters as much since your already married but I'd try to make sure you are there to sign the birth certificate papers for the baby so it makes the CRBA process easier as they beed proof the baby is American because you (the father) are American. If not then may require DNA testing etc etc making it way more difficult.
