Children in US immigration law means people under 21 year of age. When a child turns 21, he or she becomes a son or a daughter of US citizen. Immigrant visa or ?green card? or permanent residency can be sent to Parents of US citizen even if the parents have been out of status for a while and are currently in the United States. If your spouse has children from prior marriage and she can prove maternity by birth certificate then the children will also receive permanent resident under current US immigration law. The children must be under 18 when the marriage took place in order to receive an immigrant visa through the parents? marriage. When you get married to a US citizen and you are from another country and the interview happened before your second anniversary, you will receive a conditional card and will need to submit a Form I-751 petition to remove the condition on the green card when it expires. USCIS will need to review the I-751 with evidence relating to the bona fide marriage for the truthful marriage. For example, it would be helpful to have a lot of photos to prove as evidence on Form I-751 and other documents such as joint tax filing on Form xxxx showing filing as married couple, and a lease agreement showing joint residence for the petition to remove the condition on the green card and apply for the 10 year green card. I got my green card through marriage to a US citizen but now we are separated. I got my green card by getting married with a US citizen and I received a conditional card, I can still remove the condition on my green card as long as I gather sufficient evidence that the marriage was real when it lasted. We have declaration samples for friends and families who can sign and attest to the validity of the marriages. I came to the United States as a tourist (B-2) and I want to study in the United States, I can change to a student status and receive another I-94 card and start attending classes in the United States. I cannot attend class until my change of status application is approved by USCIS. Change of status application is on Form I-539 and it can be downloaded at www.uscis.gov. I need to first find the school I would like to attend around where I live because I probably will not be able to get a driver?s license under the tourist B-2 status and must get a student I-94 and shows enrollment in school to get a driver?s license. After finding a school that issues I-20 and find the right program, I would begin to complete Form I-539 and submit it with my supporting evidence to USCIS in Laguna Niguel. I must have the I-20 before I can apply for change of status to keep staying in the United States. If you are looking for a school for the F-1 status in the United States you should probably be able to show that you have sufficient fund to finish the school (money in the bank) or be prepared to find a sponsor (family or friend). I came to the United States to visit family, and now I wish to extend my status so that I can stay longer to be with my family. You should know that by filing the extension you will automatically have a little over a month or so to stay in the United States. You should depart the United States before you receive a decision for Form I-539 from USCIS because it can cause your visa to be cancelled and you will need to reapply for it again. This will be difficult for those consulate/embassies where visa are hard to get approval for. JCS Immigration Law Office - Immigration Attorney Direct CALL (949)228-xxxx or EMAIL askattorney@gmail.com WEB: http://www.immigrationattorneyla.com We specialize in green card processing with USCIS and Department of State, US Embassy.  Attorney visa services also include K-1 fiancee visa and K-3 spouse visa.  We will assist with all documentation and paperwork presentation.  We represent clients in green card applications by marriage to US citizen with USCIS all the way to interview for permanent resident status.  Step-children will also qualify for the legal status if the marriage to US citizen takes place before the child's 18th birth day.  We are also experienced with Child Status Protection Act and can help determine whether aged-out children qualify for an immigrant visa.  We can also help you with affidavit of support preparation. We are experienced immigration attorneys and we have filed many approved I-130 and I-485 for permanent resident status.  Please be aware that you must submit all supporting documentations with your I-130 and I-485.  USCIS may reject your applications for green card if you do not submit all of the supporting evidence with your applications.  You will receive a work permit within 90 days of submitting your USCIS forms with the USCIS office having jurisdiction over your residence.  If you entered with inspection, you should have been issued an I-94 at the airport or land entry, and in order to receive your green card you must have a copy of your I-94. If you entered the United States with a tourist visa (B1/B2) and overstayed your status, you can still apply for a green card based on marriage.  If you enterd the United States illegally, then you should speak to an attorney about your eligibility for 245i protection.  To qualify under 245i, you must have a prior petition that was filed for you on or before April 30, xxxx.  The prior 1-130 petition must be approvable when filed.  A labor certificate will also qualify you for 245i petition as long as it is approvable when filed.  If you currently hold a student status or if you were an international student, you can still receive a green card by marrying a US citizen even if you have dropped out of school.  You will need to prepare your passport, birth certificate and marriage certificate for green card processing We accompany clients to green card interview with local USCIS office.  USCIS used to be called INS and it was consolidated with several other agencies into one under Department of Homeland Security.  Immigration forms are now available for download online, but you must kow which forms to file to successfully obtain the immigration benefits you and your family are entitled to under the law.  This is why hiring an immigration lawyer to help you through the immigration procedures is so important to ensure that you do not waste your filing fee paid to US Citizenship & Immigration Services.  You need an immigration lawyer to explain to you the answers to your immigration questions. Typically if the beneficiary alien who is applying for the green card is in the United States, you would deal with USCIS when you apply for the green card and work authorization.  If the beneficiary is outside of United States, then you will deal with the Department of State, which includes the National Visa Center and US embassy and US Consulate.  Beneficiaries applying for a immigrant visa outside of United States is required to pay the visa fee as well as the affidavit of support fee prior to the visa interview and will have to turn in police clearance to show no criminal record and medical exam to show a clean bill of health.  If you have a medical condition, it is best that you speak to an immigration attorney before filing your visa application.  You can get a free consultation here: www.immigratioanttorneyla.com We also specialize in citizenship application.  INS rules require that the applicant for naturalization (N-400) live in the United States two and half years before the citizenship application can be approved.  You also must maintain continuous physical presence in the United States and not leave the US for more than one year at a time.  If you have a criminal conviction, you should receive a thorough consultation with immigration attorney.  After you have acquired your naturalization certificate, you can petition for immigrant visa for your parents (8 months), spouse (8 months), children and brothers and sisters to immigrate to the United States. We have represented many clients for the work permit status such as H1b, L1 and E1, E2 visa/status.  You must have a sponsor employer and a professional job offer.  You must also have a college degree, but you can sometimes substitute college degree with work experience.  If you were recently laid off from your H1b, you can resume your H1b status with another employer if you have not been laid off for more than 30 days.  You may be required to return home to do visa stamping and USCIS may not issue you a new I-94.  If you have been terminated from your H-1b employer you may only have a small window of time to transfer your H-1b status to a new employer.  The new employer will be required to pay the transfer filing fee and a new Labor Condition Application.  Your spouse and dependent children will also be able to receive legal status to remain and study in the United States.
