Contact the Jamaican embassy. I would also suggest getting that birth certificate amended before you leave the UK.

You may still be LEGALLY a Jamaican citizen (by virtue of the marriage that is still current). This would allow you to go to Jamaica without being hassled so long as you have proof of the marriage to a Jamiacan. Check with the consulate about this as a temporary fix.

Beyond the divorce, you can look towards getting married again OR look towards getting a work permit in Jamaica.

Hi
I have to first ask the question have you ever been to Jamaica .
If you have not you are in for a bit of a culture shock . first when you arrive at either Mo bay or Kingston airport they will only want to give you a max of three months visa . and you will have to prove how you are going to support yourself while you are there .

By the look of what you have written you will need lots of advice .which i will not put out for public viewing

Mail me if you need more advice .

Why dont you sleep with a jamaican official. I beleive corruption is fairly rife, and you know your way around the men, so should be str8forward.

Think it through carefully before you make a decision. Jamaica and to an extent Trinidad, where I migrated to 15 years ago is very different to how it was back then. If you think crime is bad in the UK, it is heaven compared to Jamaica. Getting things done is "who you know" and not what you know. Unemployment is rife, especially for a foreigner as you will have to do jobs you scorned back at home. The murder rate is very high as is rape, especially of a nice fresh young ting. My advice to you is if your partner is in a detention centre, that's not the best place for your daughter to see her father. Lie and say he's on vacation until he is released and she is old enough to understand the truth.
