I was reading the CSPA sticky and wasn't too sure. It seems like it might, but I'd like to get some clarification from the community. I'm trying to help my GF out a bit.
Her DOB is 06/14/1986
Priority date is 10/21/1992
From Philippines.
She is the derivative of her parents who were in F3 status (married sons and daughters of a US citizen). Her mom already obtained LPR status late last year. They (my GF's parents) arrived as students in 1988 and have remained since and so has my GF.
My questions are:
- If CSPA applies, can she can file an AOS application here in the U.S. since her CSPA age would be under 21 according to my calculation?
- IF CSPA does NOT apply, her mom who is now an LPR can apply for her as an unmarried daughter of an LPR and my GF will be able to retain the original priority date of 10/21/92, correct?
Thanks, I'm a noob here but I've been reading the posts and I've been encouraged by the knowledge and willingness to help. Thanks again!
Does CSPA apply to derivative beneficiaries (F3)?
