Requirements and ages of children who immigrate to the United States

First, let's look at the definition of children in American immigration law. Children refer to people under 2 1 who are unmarried and meet one of the following conditions:

1. Children born in wedlock

2. Stepchildren, whether legal or not, as long as the children are under 18 years old when the stepchild relationship is established.

3. Before the child 18 years old, the father obtained custody through legal channels.

4. Children born out of wedlock who only follow their father or mother must have real blood relationship with their father.

5. If the child was adopted before the age of 16 and has passed the legal guardianship and residence period of 2 years, the relationship between the child and the adoptive parents is a child relationship. In addition, if the family has adopted 1 child, the adoption of a second child can be relaxed to 18 years old at the time of adoption.

6. Some orphans

In many cases, if foreign children are children of American citizens or permanent residents, or children of beneficiaries who are applying for immigration to the United States, if the age of foreign children reaches 265,438+0 during the application period, they will be ruled as "outdated" and lose their green card qualification under the old American immigration law.

For example, Light Light is the child of an American citizen in China. She is unmarried at present. At the age of 20, when she was in light light blue, her American father submitted an application for immigration of children of American citizens. When Light Light submitted her application, she met all the application requirements. However, during the I-485 trial, Lan Lan passed her 2 1 birthday. At this time, her age could not meet the age requirements for children of American citizens to immigrate, that is, she could not obtain a green card in the United States.

Therefore, in order to avoid the problem of over-age, when submitting the application for the adjustment of immigration status of children of American citizens, the time should be sooner rather than later, so as to avoid being disqualified from over-age.

As we all know, moving is a laborious task, let alone moving internationally. The moving distance is long, the time span is long, and the process is complex, which has extremely high requirements for companies in the industry. How to specify a suitable delivery plan for customers, how to ensure the safety of customers' goods, and how to follow up, control and feedback customers in all aspects are all the obligations of qualified international moving companies, so it is very important to choose a powerful and suitable international moving service provider.

When choosing an international moving company to ship to Washington, we should pay attention to choosing a moving company with brand, credibility and strength, and don't make a blind reservation just by a phone call and a piece of promotional paper. Consumers should try to avoid telephone appointments and go to the nearest moving company for consultation. Besides these, you should also know something about customs, for example, you should know about customs tariff policy. For example, if you move to Washington, USA by sea, if you plan to bring tea and other items, please ensure that it is within a reasonable range of personal use, usually for an ordinary family for 2-3 months. If you bring too many articles, the customs officer may ask for unpacking inspection, which will lead to extra expenses.

The prevention and control of animal and plant diseases in the United States is very strict. According to customs regulations, all meat, milk, beans, dirt and sawdust are not allowed to enter the country with luggage. Therefore, please check whether there are such items in your goods before shipment.

If you plan to bring wine, the customs will ask you to declare it separately, indicating the type, degree and capacity of the wine. In addition to high tariffs, customs officers often open boxes for wine inspection, so it is not recommended to bring them.

It is understood that the so-called on-site service provided by some companies will be counted separately. For example, the domestic part will be paid to the moving company, the foreign part will be paid to the port, and some will be paid to the customs and freight forwarding companies. To put it bluntly, the services provided by these companies are door-to-door services, and there will definitely be hidden expenses in foreign countries, so we must find a company that can pay the expenses in one lump sum.

When moving, first of all, we should make full preparations, put all the scattered things into boxes or parcels, and break them into parts. Secondly, you can ask the moving company to send more people. Finally, arrange the time and itinerary reasonably and try to match your itinerary. We should arrange for the ship to arrive in Hong Kong one week after you land, so that you have enough time to prepare for customs clearance. When the ship arrives at the destination port, if it is a door-to-door one-stop service, someone will inform your foreign recipient and then make an appointment for delivery. After the goods are delivered to your door, unpack them to help you put them away, and clean up the packaging garbage and take them away.

If it is a door-to-door service, you need to check the arrival information of the company on the day when the ship is about to arrive in Hong Kong according to the agent information displayed on the bill of lading after you receive the notice, and then pay the fee to the agent to pick up the goods after customs clearance. If the consignee fails to pick up the goods within 3 working days, there will be a storage fee, which will be borne by the consignee. The customs clearance passport at the destination port must be the same as the customs declaration passport at the port of departure, and the English cargo list must be carried.

Before, when I moved to Washington from the sea, I contacted Hailong International. I asked about the relevant procedures and delivery matters, and the customer service also enthusiastically explained a lot of my problems to me. Under the explanation of Hailong customer service, I realized that it was easy to handle. Moreover, in order to carry the piano, Hailong Company has special professional packing boxes and packaging materials to ensure the safety of the piano. With the advancement of working hours in the United States, this move was quickly finalized. And one month before going to the United States, I agreed to come to the door for packaging. It may be troublesome at first, but it is very easy to move internationally if it is really step by step.

When the ship going to Washington by sea arrived at the destination port, I signed the door-to-door one-stop service of Hailong International. When the time comes, someone will inform my foreign recipient and then make an appointment for home delivery. After the door-to-door delivery, remove the packaging and help me put it away, and clean up and take away the packaging garbage. Therefore, Hailong International really appreciates it and recommends it to friends who emigrate to the United States.

Background of EB-5 investment immigration project in the United States:

Congress created the EB-5 program 25 years ago to create jobs and attract funds for the United States by providing green cards to investors, who invested $500,000 in a regional center project approved by the Immigration Bureau for five years. The plan requires each investor to create at least 10 direct or indirect employment opportunities through investment. At present, more than 650 regional centers have provided qualified investment projects. There are 65,438+00,000 EB-5 immigrant investment visa places every year.

EB-5 investment immigration program has been very popular with high net worth people since it was launched, because there is no restriction on education, language, age, business background and the advantages of inheritance and donation of investment funds.

In addition, there is no language requirement for American immigration investment projects, and there is no requirement for the applicant's residence after immigration. Applicants can run their own businesses freely all over the world, and truly realize the freedom of immigration and entry and exit.

What do you need to pay attention to when investing in immigration to the United States?

Investors need to pay special attention to EB-5 investment projects when immigrating to the United States through EB-5 investment immigration projects. After all, the success of investment immigration in the United States depends on whether the selected projects pass the examination of the Immigration Bureau and whether they can operate normally. When inspecting a project, it is necessary to inspect the company background of the project developer, the projects that have been operated in the past and the rationality of the project itself.
