More details to this question:
I am an American citizen, born in the U.S. My girlfriend and my daughter live and are born in Mexico. How can I fix papers for them both so I can have them with me? We do plan on getting married and going through the legal works. Yet I can’t find concrete information or how to proceed with this. Please help and what is the best recommended procedure for this.

You can petition for your girlfriend as your fiance or you can marry her in Mexico and then petition for her as your wife. If your daughter is, indeed, your daughter, she should be a US citizen by virtue of your paternity.

Just for I-129F for your girlfriend. Your child may be US citizen already by operation of law. Consult with immigration lawyer.

You can file a petition for your wife either as a finacee or marry her and file for her as your wife. See an Immigration Attorney who can walk you through the process and help you file the paper work.
