I-130 Question: Applying for Sister and her family
Hello,
I had a fundamental question. USC Applying GC for my sister and her family(2 kids 13, 11 and husband) all living in India
- Do I need to file seperate petitions(hence seperate fees with I-130) for the Adults(assumings kid can be on the parents application)?
- Brother-in-law is not interested, can I just apply for Sister and the kids or will it cause an RFE since they are legally married?
- Isnt the timeline for approval of relatives(non-immediate) over a decade?
Just file one I-130 for your sister. Include her familys name in the form, husband, kids. Its a little over 9 years wait which change. Dont worry about bro in law, add his name, he has about a decade to change his mind.
Good Luck
thank you for clarifying.
If the kids age goes over 21 when the Green card petition approval comes along, what happens then? Do their now GC parents(Ie my sister, bil) re-apply for them or the age only at the time of application matters.
I believe age at the time of approval of petition matters. The 2 year old is fine.
