international travel after adoption
I am going on a cruise with my extended family in August and hope that Benji will be home to go with us. Will it be a problem for him to travel internationally (Europe)? Will he have a US passport at that point and a social security number?
I have only been able to focus one step ahead through this whole process, so even though I should probably know all this, I don't. Thanks.

Technically you can travel on the US visa and GUatemalan passport he;ll come home on. The only problem I'd see is if any country you plan to visit requires a visa for Guatemalans that want to visit (there could be many.) Your Certificate of Citizenship comes to you pretty quickly after homecoming. And you can get a US passport expedited (for a fee of course). I'd recommend doing that.
One other thought though to consider. Are you sure taking a baby on a cruise is the best idea. Some people get seasick and I'd personally be afraid to bring a baby newly home onto a cruise. Kevin

Hi Linda!
We have traveled out of the country with Annie several times. The first time was when she was just home a few months. We got her a U.S. passport very soon after we came home with her from Guatemala. We had no problems taking her out of the country. Diane

Linda, as soon as you bring Benji obtain his passport, i think is the best choice.
