Can My Child Come With Me on a U.S. Immigrant Visa?

When you are a parent with plans to immigrate to the United States, one of the most important questions may be whether your child can come with you. The answer depends on many factors such as the visa category, your child’s age, his/her marital status, and your relationship to the person who is petitioning you to immigrate to the United States. In some immigration categories, an unmarried child under twenty-one (21) years old can qualify as a derivative beneficiary and immigrate through the parents without having a separate immigrant petition filed with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) submitted on their behalf. At Enterline and Partners, our U.S. immigration attorneys help individuals and families in Vietnam and the Philippines understand how their children fit into K-1 fiancé(e) visa, family-based, EB-3 employment, EB-5 investor, and other immigration cases.

How to Prove a Bona Fide Marriage for a U.S. Spousal Visa

Applying for a U.S. visa based on marriage, commonly known as a Spousal visa, requires more than showing that you are legally married. The U.S. government must also be satisfied that you entered into the marriage in good faith and not primarily to obtain an immigration benefit. For couples living in different countries, proving the relationship can require careful documentation. You may not have a joint lease, shared utility bills or other records that couples living together commonly have. Instead, your evidence may need to show how the relationship developed, stayed connected and how your lives have become intertwined despite the distance. Understanding what counts as bona fide marriage evidence for a U.S. Spousal Visa can help you prepare a stronger case and reduce the risk of questions later in the process. If you have questions about the evidence needed for your U.S. Spousal visa case, our U.S. immigration attorneys

What is the NVC and What Happens After USCIS Approval? (2026 Guide)

Having an immigrant petition approved by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (“USCIS”) is an important milestone, but for many applicants living outside the United States, it is not the end of the immigration process. Following USCIS approval, the case moves to the National Visa Center (“NVC”) which is under the Department of State (“DOS”). The NVC processing involves creating a case number, paying visa application fees, collecting and submitting documentation and waiting for the case to be transferred to a U.S. Embassy or Consulate. At Enterline and Partners, our U.S. immigration attorneys represent clients in Asia through the different stages of the immigration process, including family-based immigration cases, K-1 fiancé(e) visa cases, and EB-5 immigrant investor cases. In this guide, we will walk you through what happens after USCIS approval, what to expect from NVC processing and how to prepare for the consular processing stage of your case.
