Hello everyone,

I'm writing to see if anyone who visits this page, has had the experience of claiming a child over 21. I'm looking to get info from a similar case and for someone who had their visa approved and has already migrated to the US. Preferably from Central or South America or the caribbean since this is my particular case and it seems to me that those cases get handled similarly, but I may not be accurate on this.

I'd appreciate if you can give me any info as far as the time it took for the case to be approved.
In the immigration page, the timelines contradict themselves and when I called immigration, the lady who talked to me told me she did not think those were accurate. So no luck there.

Thanks for any info I can get.

Looks like about 9 years for unmarried son or daughter of LPR.
Looks like about 6 years for unmarried son or daughter of USC.

I agree.... I have filed for my son who is over 21.... once I become a citizen he will move to catagory 1 instead of 2B so we are looking at about 7-8 years from time of approval of the I-130...
