Success Stories: I-130 Spousal and Stepchild Petition approved for nationals from the Philippines
Photo by Rendy Novantino on Unsplash. Form I-130 is used by a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident (LPR) to apply for permanent residency for a qualifying relative who wishes to come to the United States permanently and get a Permanent Resident Card (also called a Green Card).
We recently received an approval at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) of a spousal and stepchild petition for nationals of the Philippines. Congratulations to our clients!
The U.S. citizen petitioner filed the I-130 petition for his spouse and minor stepchild. A stepchild may be petitioned to immigrate to the United States, as long as the marriage creating the step-relationship occurred before the child turned 18.
Upon approval of the petition, the beneficiaries have to consular process at a U.S. Consulate abroad and the petitioner needs to provide an affidavit of support which demonstrates their ability to financially provide for their family. Learn more about the next steps for consular processing after your I-130 application is approved and timing considerations.
