Can American green card children immigrate?

Parents can apply for immigration for their children when they get the American green card, and they can go to the United States after the application is successful.

According to American immigration law, there are four main situations to apply for child immigration:

(1)2 1 Unmarried children of American citizens under the age of can apply for immigration, and there is no quota limit;

(2) Children who have reached the age of 2 1 year, but are unmarried, belong to the first priority category;

(3) Children who are married belong to the third priority category;

(4) Green card holders can also apply for immigration for their unmarried children. Beneficiaries belong to the second priority category, and divorced children are considered unmarried. Married children of green card holders have no priority.

The Immigration Law defines "children" as follows:

(1) legitimate children;

(2) A stepchild, as long as his biological father is married to his stepmother or his biological mother is married to his stepfather, and the child is under the age of 18, he has the status of stepchild;

(3) Children born out of wedlock can seek immigration status through their relationship with their biological mother or father, if they are really related by blood;

(4) adopted children, adopted children before the age of 16, legally adopted by adoptive parents, who have lived with adoptive parents for two years.

The so-called parents here include not only biological father and mother, but also stepfather, stepmother, adoptive father and adoptive mother. In principle, the applicant's children should prove the existence of parent-child relationship. It should be noted that the relationship between the adopted children and their biological parents was terminated by adoption, so the adopted children obtained citizenship and could not apply for immigration to the United States for their biological parents.
