Hello, I am writing to you because I am slowly losing hope. I am not in any way the best financial situation at the moment, like most Americans these days. To make a long story short...I was living in Mexico for nearly 2 years. Typical love story girl meets boy, long 2 year story short they fall in love and here comes baby. Well here's my case...I engaged to a Mexican man, I am Puerto Rican (and lived in New York most of my life and currently in New York)...we are expecting our first child, I am 5 months pregnant and risking the health of my child with all the anxiety and stress I am going through in trying to find a way to bring him here to the US. And like most first time parents we are over joyed with the coming of our first child...However, this joy is being over shadowed by the fact that he does not have his visa. Neither one of us have the money to petition for a Fiance visa or even for his Boarder crsossing visa which given to the State Departments website is the cheapest visa. I don't think I can bare the thought of having this child born without his father by my side and do not want to live with some kind of recentment towards him because he was not there when I need him. I need him now more than ever because of the state of my pregnancy. I have spoken with so many lawyers, who claim to have connections in the Mexican Consulate only to later want to charge me 4times the cost of the visa petition fees or even just asking for information on how to obtain his visa. My credit score isn't enough for a loan from a bank to cover the cost of the entire process. The only recourse at the moment he has monetarily is a "possible" loan for the plane ticket from his father, given tha the rest of his family is not willing to help in anyway. I am looking on all fronts to see if someone, anyone can help me. I don't know what to do. I have always prided myself to be very legally saavy, given my college education, but I now feel like a failure to myself, my unborn son, and my future husband. I only want to marry this man legally here in New York. I do not want to put my unborn son through more stress that I have already. I need him here to assist me durring the rest of this pregnancy so our son can be born safely. I am a supporter for everyone who needs a helping hand, so why can't anyone support me in my decision to marry a foreigner and not just any foreigner but the father of my son...Please I am begging you, can you help me? Or do you know of someway that this can be fixed fast and legally. He has his passport and even went and had a physical done by a licensed doctor. Please can someone help me! -L
