New green card rules for non-citizen children in US: How will it affect Indians?
USCIS issues new rule for age calculation of a child seeking green card along with parents. The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services announced a new rule for age calculation of non-citizen children applying for a green card on their parents' petitions. It stated that, starting from August 15, the Final Action Date will be used for calculating the child's age instead of the current rule of considering the Dates for Filing. This means more children will age out soon. An unmarried alien child must be under age 21 to obtain lawful permanent resident status in the United States based on their parent's approved petition for a family-sponsored, employment-based, or diversity visa. If they turn 21 and age out during the immigration process, they generally are no longer eligible to immigrate based on their parents' petition. The Child Status Protection Act (CSPA) helps certain children remain eligible for a Green Card past their 21st birthday, protecting them from 'ageing out' due to long processing delays. — USCIS (@USCIS) In February 2023, USCIS expanded this protection by allowing the Dates for Filing chart, often years ahead of the Final Action Dates chart, to determine when a visa is 'available' for CSPA purposes. This let many families file sooner and lock in a child's age under 21. "If an alien is applying for adjustment of status under a family-sponsored, employment-based preference, or diversity visa, they must seek to acquire lawful permanent residence within one year of when a visa becomes available to benefit from the CSPA age calculation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like She Mixed Pink Salt With This - Now She Can't Stop Losing Weight Your Health Undo This update also clarifies that we consider an alien to have satisfied the 'sought to acquire' requirement if they demonstrate extraordinary circumstances for failing to seek lawful permanent resident status within one year of when a visa becomes available. If an alien demonstrates extraordinary circumstances for not applying for adjustment of status during the period of the Feb. 14, 2023, policy before August 15, 2025, we will calculate CSPA age under the Feb. 14, 2023, policy," the USCIS said. How will it affect Indian families? Children could now turn 21 before the Final Action Date is reached, and thereby they have to switch to a separate petition. Since the rule is to be implemented from August 15, Indian families can file adjustment of status applications as soon as the Dates for Filing chart allows, especially before August 15, 2025, to lock in the more favorable CSPA age calculation.

Putin, Modi, Xi, Lula: BRICS Plots Tariff Counter to 'Bully' Trump; Phones Ring, Gloves Off!
Trump Fumes Over India's Oil Ties, Pauses Trade Talks. US Official Explains President's Tariff Rage US President Donald Trump put trade talks with India on ice. 'Not until we get it resolved,' he declared as his administration imposed a staggering 50% tariff on Indian goods over oil trade with Russia. While White House officials labeled India a 'strategic partner,' they insisted that words must give way to results on trade balance and energy policy. Across the aisle, Prime Minister Modi responded swiftly, stating India would never compromise on the interests of its farmers and rural communities, even if it came at a cost. The Ministry of External Affairs mirrored his stance, calling the tariff move 'unfair, unjustified and unreasonable,' reaffirming India's resolve to protect its sovereign choices. #trumptariff #trumpondia #indiatradehalt #modiresponds #pmmodi #farmerfirstindia #indiadefies #tradeconflict #strategicpartner #unfairtariffs #indiaresilience #breakingnews #trending #trendingnow #toi #bharat #toibharat #indianews 16.3K views | 14 hours ago
