DV 2015 Winners Meet Here

Hi there,
I’m in a kind of an awkward situation. My CN is AF000058xx and hopefully will have my interview scheduled for November. The thing is my wife is now pregnant and we are expecting our new baby by first week of Feb. 2016. So, shall we travel to US before that (Dec. or Jan.) though some doctors might think it’s risky for a pregnant woman to fly such a distance in her late stages of pregnancy? Or, can we wait after the delivery of the new baby and then we can somehow (I don’t know if it’s possible) add him to our papers and travel to US late Feb. or Mar.?

Yep you just wait. There is nothing else to do and nothing to worry about.

That is not an issue. There is a special procedure at the POE to process infants born after the visa has been issued. Just relax, it will get sorted out later.

My number was also current for October, submitted my forms June 3, and my interview has not been scheduled. I am waiting, hoping the notification letters will come out this week. If you receive yours please let us know.

Most airlines will not risk flying a pregnant woman at that stage of the pregnancy. Also, not sure about what kind of support (financial, emotional and physical) you have in place even if the airlines are willing to fly her if she were to have a baby within a month or two of arriving as new immigrants.

You're probably better off having the baby back at home. Like Simon said, there's a procedure for adding new babies at the POE, that shouldn't be a problem.

Aha, but still, how can I travel with my new born to POE if he still doesn't have a visa in his passport? Shall it be issued separately from the embassy? Or what are the procedure to do that?

Vladek, I think Jivara's concern is getting to the US with a new born baby who does not possess a valid visa. This is a problem for people from countries whose citizens require a visa to travel to the US. As far as I know (correct me if I'm wrong plz) Airlines will not allow anyone - including an infant - to board a plane if they did not have a valid visa.

After the baby's birth, you will need to go back to the embassy with the baby's birth certificate, international passport and 2(?) passport photos and request to be issued with a 'Transportation Letter'. This is what you will present to the Airlines, they are familiar with it and will let you and your wife board with the baby.

You are saying that no emails will be sent this week - they will only be sent next week (i.e. from the 22nd). Want a bet on that? I would be willing to bet they will be sent this week.
