Permanent U.S resident green card holder. Petitioning for immigrant status for Sons or Daughter above 21???
Answer:
Lawful Permanent Residents
If you are a lawful permanent resident applying to bring an unmarried, minor child or an unmarried son or daughter to the United States to live and you are the mother of the child, you must file the following with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services:
-Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative
-A copy of your alien registration card
-A copy of the child’s birth certificate showing your name and the child’s name
-If anyone’s name has been legally changed (if it differs from the name on his or her birth certificate), evidence of the name change must be submitted.
If you are a lawful permanent resident and the father or stepparent of the child, you must file the following with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services:
-Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative
-A copy of your alien registration receipt card
-A copy of the child’s birth certificate showing the child’s name and the names of both parents
-A copy of civil marriage certificate showing the names of both parents, or proof that a parent/child relationship exists or existed (if you are petitioning for a stepchild, your marriage to the child’s parent must take place before the stepchild’s 18th birthday)
-A copy of any divorce decrees, death certificates, or annulment decrees that establish the termination of any previous marriages entered into by you or your spouse
-Fathers petitioning for a child born out of wedlock must provide evidence that a parent/child relationship exists or existed. For example, the child’s birth certificate displaying the father’s name, evidence showing that the father has made financial contributions in support of the child. A blood test proving paternity may be necessary.
-If anyone’s name has been legally changed (if it differs from the name on his or her birth certificate), evidence of the name change must be submitted
After Filing the Petition
You will be notified by the USCIS if your I-130 petition is approved or denied. If it is approved, your child, son or daughter will be notified by the Department of State when a visa number, if necessary, is available. If your child, son or daughter is outside the country, he or she (or the adult acting for him or her) must then go to the local U.S. consulate to complete visa processing. If your child, son or daughter is legally inside the United States when a visa number, if necessary, becomes available, he or she may then apply to adjust to Permanent Resident status.
I-130, Petition for Alien Relative. Only if they are single are you able to petition for them. Attached are links from the US Citizenship and Immigration Service. Good Luck
Edit: No additional form is needed just make sure to include their (In this case your grand children's) information where it asks about children.
Yes they can. My father is currently petitioning my sister who is unmarried and is 27 years old. You need to file a I-130. If you become a citizenship they will upgrade the category and it will go faster.
