There are cases where people flew over to see ex and child to persuade the child to do medical, or start a family proceeding in the local jurisdiction. You have to exhaust...

If you have a baby in 2016, you don't count her in for the year of 2013, 2014 and 2015. The family composition can be a changing situation, and it...
