Hello Forum! Please help point me to the right direction. I found out last week that I have a 3 year old daughter in Nigeria from a past relationship. I am not with the mother. I hold dual citizenship i.e Nigeria and the UK. It is my intention to bring my daughter to the UK to be close to me. I have spoken to her mum at length and we have both agreed the best choice for them to move to the UK. I am worried I might have to marry the mother, I dont want to do that as we are two different people. how can I go about this?

My profile: I work as a business analyst in the UK with above average pay, dont really have a lot of cash savings as I have recently purchase a property in Nigeria for my mum. I can afford to rent a property for them to stay once they are here.

what are my options? Many Thanks in advance
