We are GC holders. Our child was born a few month ago outside the US in Lithuania. Now we are going go back to the US and I've read that we need a Transportation letter for an infant.
http://moscow.usembassy.gov/uscis-tra...nltrs.html
Did I get it right, that the infant needs this letter to be allowed on flight?
My question is about the detailed order of getting the transportation letter. Should we make an appointment in the local US embassy? How long does it take to get this letter from the firs visit?
...
