I'm filing to bring my step daughter from the Philippines in Jan 2013. I married my wife in Sept 2010 using a K-1 when my step daughter was 17. She ages out in Nov 2013. I'm filing for my wife's ROC in Jan as well as she expires 3/29/13. My question is: do you think my step daughter will receive a 2yr or 10 yr GC when she is approved?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

She will get a 10 year green card because you and her mother have been married for more than two years.

Since the USC stepfather is petitioning a stepchild under age 21, her age is frozen under CSPA on the day USCIS receives the petition. She will not age out as long as you are the petitioner and files before her 21st birthdate.
