Can one send a US born infant to stay with their grandparents for a year. What type of visa will the baby need to have? Pls share your experience. Thanks in advance.

ok its their personal matter.. bideshi and true.. its easy to say how can you.. when they dont have a choice.. they have to.. .. aabha.. why dont u consult Nepali Embassy... they will resolve your question

I am amazed at the propensity of people, especially here in Sajha, to jump to conclusions and spare no time or reasoning to condemn/blame/denigrate other people.

Abha of US probably has her reasons on sending her child to Nepal with her parents.  Heck, maybe it is not even her child, maybe she is finding an alternative for somebody else's infant.  Who knows why?  Certainly not these nincompoops who are quick to play the blame game here.

Abha, as tintotopi advised, give Nepal embassy at DC or Nepali Mission at NY a call.  And keep on asking around.  I have heard of people doing the same thing as what you posted. 

As for those dumbasses on high-horses with holier than thou attitude:  If you do not have anything constructive to suggest, why on earth do you open your worthless piehole? 

As far as I know, they will give you 90 days visa at the airport and you can reniew it without any problem.  Make sure you have a passport size photo of your baby at the airport.

I still say if you can't make commitment to your children then why bother having them. I have 2 kids and I am struggling but still choose to keep my kids with me.

Peace

True its your personal choice.. So no comments

Haha..True we all sajha nepalese are amazed how you  jump to conclusion without any reasoning. Aabha  I think consulting Nepalese embassy will help to resolve your question.

I don't understand why people have to jump on conclusion before hearing the whole story.  Now I don't know what aabha story is but its his personal choice to sent his child to Nepal and he/she must have a reason for that.  If you choose to keep your two kids while struggling, that’s your personal choice too and about $20 baby sitting, you know some people might have argument that they would rather sent their kids to Nepal and raised by their grandparent than raising by someone you don't know.  So shut up and don't put Nasty comment like why bother having them you can't commit.

 

 

When my son and I landed at TIA, they asked if my son had a picture for visa, I said no. They said ok never mind and stamped 60 days on the passport.

ok my daughter was born here and she has been with grandmom for one year in nepal now. Couple my friends have their kids born here back with therir grandparent.

just use us passport to your child and at the nepali airport they will stamp for 6 month visa. after 6 month you can renew for another one year.to renew the visa the guardians in Nepal should have NATAPRAMANIT from their respective VDC or Nagarpalika.you don't have to pay any visa fee for the kids below 18 years.

lau why r u all being so mean grandparents want to see their grand children and in US its not easy to get off work whenever u want. so parents want to sent their kids to stay them for a little while. whts wrong with that arent grandparents like parents

Johny,then why don't you shut up too.Why r u commenting?

Even I don't have anything against those who send their  kids away from them.I am just saying it coz I too have two small kids and no matter how hard it is ,I don't want to miss anything of theirs.I would rather raise them myself than send them away for my comfort.I was just commenting coz I am a mom of a small kids.I am not against Ava or anything like that.But sending infant away from mom just made me put those comments.Infant needs mom's love,affection and care!

Peace

Our parents have already done more than enough for us.Now we need to let them relax and enjoy life,You know,it's hard for grandparents to take care of grandkids 24/7.It's really exhausting.I have seen one grandmom who went on depression after her 6 yrs old grandson left her to be with his parents in UK.They will feel more lonely and alone.Why not visit parents often or call them here rather than just send the kids away that is also an infant.

But I have nothing against anyone.It's their lives,their choices.

Peace

Bideshi said "People send their kids away for their own benefit.What a pity!!"  Now how do you know that abba is sending his/her child for their benifit.  Okay I understand you are mother of infant but that won't give you any right to judge someone else personal choice and call them selfish. 

lol dont put your personal problems here.. abha just wants suggestion and i think she already got more than suggestions

I am gonna have to agree with Bideshi on this one. It’s very easy to come up with excuses in USA to off load your parental responsibilities to somebody else in Nepal. As a father of two and half years old child myself, I can’t really think of any good excuse to keep my son away from me. We’ve been through some rough times and the only thing that kept us happy through out that period was my son. I bet that most, if not all, of these people who are supporting ‘aabha_in_us’ action do not have kids and don’t really know what it means to have one. I would have probably responded the same way if I wasn’t a father. So please look for a way to keep your infant with you, and I’m sure that you will find one.  And to those who are saying that it is really a personal matter, then it should have been kept personal - no need to share it in Sajha aka public.

Waiyat thread....

Didn't even read the whole thread. Sorry, if there were some nice piece of conversation, got to interpret this way 'coz of topic, pathetic people....

Hi,

Aabha must be sending her child back to Nepal for some reason. I have seen so many Nepalese young gurls not conceiving just because there will be no one to take care. So, if her parents are ready to take care of child then I guess that's not a bad idea. The child will be growing at the same time Aabha will have few more yrs to focus on what she is doing at the same time enjoy being mother.She will have  alot more year to take care of baby.

Keeping child in US is good only is the infants mother is staying at home or have someone reliable. If not who will be better to trust than your own parents to take care of you child, if they are ready.

But, I guess it was not even easy for her to come to this thought. Good luck to you and wish all the best for Baby !

Prapta

Thank you guys who provided constructive comments. I also appreciate true and bideshi's concern.
Regarding posting 'personal matter in sajha' , I believe I am not posting a personal matter and wailing for pity but asking if anyone knows procedure. I think a case applied to A may not be same for B. And by many reason nepalese grandparents might be much more better in taking care of baby than a daycare run by some unknowns.

You dont need anything, they will grant ur child 3 months visa at the airport, which u can renew every 3 months at the immigration office, or u could send a copy of ur marriage certificate and get a relationship certificate between ur kid and grand mother and get a 1 year visa which can be renewed yearly.

I know its hard but but not impossible. I can undertsand what uve been going through.

Imp: Dont forget to carry lots of foods for ur baby, those liquid bottles of formula, ready to feed and diapers and plenty of nipples or bottle liners,extra clothes and ya get lots of toys, coz baby gets bored every now n then( go to dollar store). Dont rely on ticketing agent, call the airlines 24 hrs before to let them know if ur kid is less than 6 mts, they ll arrange for bassinet and other stuffs.

Nonsense idea to send infant to Nepal. Call yr parent to US and let them take care baby. If u r real parent of that baby u'd never think of sending baby far frm yr sight!!!!!!!! In case emergency to send Nepal, its is too much easy. No need nothing except US Passport. Better send vaccine report.
