I have to file at the US embassy with daughter and wife present. I'll have to be creative.

Which "wife" ? I thought you claimed not to be married to the child's mother

[northernphil]

" My wife although we were never married " Back to the states gaining freedom to travel. " I had paid off the police " Wife in jail. ............... Goodbye and good luck with..........well, If it wasn't for bad luck ................

It's going to be alright. Walk a mile in my shoes.

According to your post she is your girlfriend and not your wife !!

[donamigos1]

Being gone for so long didn't do wonders for the relationship. She's the mother of my daughter and I love her. Are you having a problem with that.?

[bangkoklasse]

Why tell us the childs mother is your wife ? If you never have been married, When asking question about visa, denied entry and being legal father ? Wife or girlfriend can make a big difference for some answers here.

[PoorSucker]

Yes I am the legal father, on birth certificate and all.

Being on the birth certificate does not make you the legal father as you are not married to the mother.

Please read this thread about how to become the legal father.

If this is a genuine post seeking assistance then in my opinion you would be best advised to employ a Thai lawyer who may be able to make sense of your seemingly complex personal circumstance.

+1...Get a Thai lawyer.

Child needs to registered as a born abroad citizen to get her dual citizenship. Has my and mothers name on birth certificate. We lived together for 3 years. Common law I guess but not married. Point is embassy is aware of the case and is assisting as much as possible but will need lawyer. And $

[donamigos1]

All paperwork is ready to do it.

[donamigos1]

Thanks for the link. I think the USA Embassy will automatically notify Thai amphur when I get her passport.

[donamigos1]

I don't know. I believe differently.

[donamigos1]

Exactly. Advice on who to contact

Common law relationships are not recognised as de facto in Thailand

They will not notify the Amphoe. There is no reason for them to do that.

[donamigos1]

OK. I need to be there to do that. All would have been settled months ago if I could get there. Thank you. Mother is more than willing to cooperate fully.

You don't need a lawyer and you don't need to be present. If you are not present the mother will have to be present. Not being married will be an extra form to fill out. I gather that the child is more than 2 years old. If so, you can fill the forms with gibberish,( well almost, but don't worry about "proving" anything ) because a DNA test will be MANDATORY. You will have to send away to the u.s.a. to a certified testing company. Prices do vary so call around. The embassy will receive 3 kits, 2 sent to mother and daughter, one to you (no matter what country you are in). You take the test, the results are given back to the embassy (embassies) . You can acquire citizenship for her ( Consular Report of Birth Abroad), but you do not need to get a u.s.a. passport ( an extra $165). the passport will expire in 5 years anyway, so if she isn't planning to travel during that time, it's pointless.

Why you don't need a lawyer. The embassy will give you a checklist. You return each item on the list in the same order. If you speak native English you're more than qualified than any Thai lawyer.

The lawyer is to handle the blacklisting problem not for the consular report of birth..

There is no mandatory DNA test. That can be requested by the consular officer doing the interview.

Read the info that you will find if you click the link I posted earlier..

Pot heads that get arreted in the USA or Canada get a criminl record. If you have a criminal record you will be denied entry.... pretty simple

[donamigos1]

Cool

[donamigos1]

No problem, and I only need a lawyer to get into thialand to fetch my kid.

If you are seriously intending to enter Thailand to "fetch your kid" I suggest you re- think your plans and rapidly.

Attempting to remove a child from Thailand without ALL the correct documentation is a sure way of being arrested and jailed.

Have you read that posts? Once he gets his entry issue taken care of then he will get a US passport for this daughter and his wife is working with him to allow this to happen.

OP Keep this in mind, even when you get a US passport for you daughter, you will still need a letter for your ex-wife (girlfriend) giving you permission to take you daughter out of Thailand.

The letter will need to be certified. Give us an update once you get everything worked out. Good Luck!

Have I got this right? You get arrested and charged but not found guilty, not sentenced, not convicted, and you get a criminal record, are denied entry into a foreign country such as Thailand?

Very interesting.

[donamigos1]

Thanks I'm aware of your objective opinions since I have had time to invest in my situation. It's great to hear from all of you and the sincere and honest advice. Believe you me, everything is going to be done thoroughly proper. Thanks again and we stay in touch. D

[donamigos1]

Yup, thanks again.
