You mentioned that the boy will be traveling back to the UK at least once a year. This is looking a bit far ahead but sfg's post reminds me that should you naturalize while the boy is still under 16 years of age you may be in for quite a treat when you try to get him a US passport.

You mean if the son is under the age of 18 when/if the mother naturalizes.
Up until the age of 18 the child automatically becomes a US citizen as well as long as they have a green card.

Plus, once you come here, it will allow *you* to call family & friends back home for free (well, not counting the $31/month, of course).
DISCLAIMER (of sorts): I am NOT associated with Vonage in any way, except for being a happy customer of theirs.

Re: K3 visa
I agree about Vonage. I use it and it's awesome.
For £8 (yes eight) pounds a month I get free, unlimited calls to the USA, including cell phones. I also get free calls throughout Europe and a lot of other countries, too. There are no hidden charges.
Skype is good but Vonage, imo, is better because with Vonage you can use a regular phone, just hook it up with the gubbins that come with it. Also, you can have a 'local' number which you can take with you anywhere in the world. You take your little Vonage box with you when you travel, hook it up to a computer, hook a phone up to it, and away you go, people can call you as though they were phoning you in the UK.

But that's cool that you can do it on either side of the pond. ;-]

Re: K3 visa
No, I mean under 16 years of age. Sixteen being the age when it's no longer necessary to get the approval of both parents for the child to be issued a US passport.
An exception would be if one parent has papers showing sole custody, which this parent does not have. Another exception would be if only one parent's name is on the BC.
