Hello All,

I need some advice on my case.

After receiving a letter of denial. I filed the 290B for my wife and two kids. The lawyer told me that we only have to file for my wife since the kids are just dependent, and they will automatically be approved if the wife case is approved.

Well, to our big surprise, we received the green card and the permit for my wife, however, we have not received a green card for the kids.

When their cases were initially denied, we received a separate letter for each person, and I specifically told the lawyer about it but was stubborn that filing for each person is not needed.

 

We call the immigration, and they informed us that we will have to file a new 290B for each individual that was denied. We are planning to schedule an appointment at the local immigration office to find out if we have any other options since the children names were included in the initial filling. 

Please advice.

 

Thanks!

Don't you just love lawyers.   One application but separate fees so separate cases.

YMMV

There is no better answer then the one who writes the rules.  So file the 290B for all. Do it yourself if your concerned with your lawyers abilities.
