How to file AOS for K-2 child who joined mother later?

[DARUMA07 25]

Hello. My wife has a friend who came here on a K-1 Jan. of 09 and got married within the 90 days and adjusted her status. She left her son in the Philippines who followed and joined her in Dec. 09. Since she has done her AOS, how does she do the AOS for her son?? Any help or advice would be appreciated!

I need to let her know exactly what forms to send in and any evidences that may be needed.

We did the K-1 and K-2 but our K-2 came here with his mother.

Hi Danny,

I did not have a follow-to join K2 but after reading the I-485 instructions, it would seem that follow-to-join K2s have the same AOS process as a regular K2. The only difference is follow-to-join K2 (14 yrs. and below) pay a higher fee of $930 instead of $600 if filing with parent.

You may want to refer your friend to the links below.

Hopefully, other VJ members who are more knowledgeable about the process could put in their two cents.

moved to the Philippines forum from the AOS forum by request of the OP who wishes to get more personally relevant information

Moved back to the AOS forum at the OP's request. She is still looking for useful advice.
