    9 FAM 502.2-1(C)  Conferring Immigration Benefits to Family Members
    (CT:VISA-1856;   10-23-2023)
    a. Immigration Benefits from Adult Children Only:  Only U.S. citizens aged at least 21 years may confer immigration benefits on a parent or parents.
    b. Parents or Siblings of Adopted Child:
    (1)  Biological Parents or Siblings:  An adopted child (as defined in INA 101(b)(1)(E), or (G)) may not confer immigration benefits upon a natural parent or sibling unless such adoption has been legally terminated. This is true even where the child never received an immigration benefit based on the adoption.
     
    She should look at other options.

    There is no requirement for a USC to maintain residency in the US.
     
    On here I always recommend getting a Certificate of Citizenship as you have nothing otherwise.
     
    These conditions must be met before you turn 18 years of age:
    1. Your parent must be a U.S. citizen;
    2. You must be the biological child of that U.S. citizen parent;
    3. You must be lawfully admitted to the United States for lawful permanent residence; and
    4. You must be living in the United States in the legal and physical custody of your U.S. citizen parent.
     
    I assume this is the issue  if he ever lived in USA, son replied he has always lived in Dubai

    Not how it works, when his PD is current he can deduct how long the I 130 took to be approved to see if his adjusted age is under 21, now it is possible but i think unlikely he will qualify for a F2a, obviously only time will tell.
     
    Or to put it another way I would plan on F2b and hope on F2a.

    Looks like he will be F2b so you will be looking at that vs F1, and no one knows where they will be going that far forward.
     
    Talking of F1 maybe look at getting him a Student Visa and going that route?

    Boiler got a reaction from Dashinka in Unaware of divorce and got approved of Conditional Residency   
    Well that is an interesting if somewhat desperate ploy.
     
    And a new one to me.
     
    So the argument is that a couple who divorce but still living together revert being common law married and not single.
     
    Now a quick google says you have to divorce to terminate a common law marriage in Texas, which os what happened.
     
    So the only way I see this operating is there has to be a gap, marry, divorce marriage, become common law married. So I do not see how this could operate as the process would not be seamless.
     
    Yes, Texas law recognizes common law marriages. In Texas statutes, such marriages are called “marriages without formalities" or "informal marriages." Laws related to common law marriage are in Chapter 2, Subchapter E of the Texas Family Code.
    Who can have a common-law marriage?
    Both partners must be eligible for marriage. This means that they must be:
    at least 18 years old;
    not related to each other;
    not married to anyone else.
    Section 2.401 of the Family Code states what qualifies as a common law marriage:
    each partner must agree to be married;
    after the marriage agreement, they must live together in Texas as a married couple;
    the couple must represent to others that they are married.
    Texas law still refers only to “husband and wife," but common law marriage is also available to same-sex couples due to the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in Obergefell v. Hodges.
    How do I prove a common law marriage?
    Couples can register their common-law marriage by filing a Declaration of Informal Marriage with their county clerk’s office. TexasLawHelp.org has sample forms and instructions for this procedure. Your county clerk’s office may also have their own forms.
    Documents like tax returns, lease agreements, insurance policies, etc. may also be helpful in proving a common-law marriage. In some situations, it may be necessary to go to court to prove a common-law marriage.
    The law can be complex, so you may wish to talk to an attorney if this is something you’re considering. For more information on finding an attorney, please see the library's Legal Help page.
    How do I end a common law marriage?
    Like those in a formal marriage, couples who want to end a common-law marriage must file for divorce.
    However, if two years pass after a common-law marriage couple separates and neither party has filed anything to prove the marriage, the state presumes that the marriage never existed. This is referenced in Texas Family Code Section 2.401.

    So it seems the above Lady went into the Ladies changing room and asked another lady to assist her with massaging her cucumber.
     
    Instead of drawing management attention to this, and presumably being banned the Lady called the Cops who presumably had not read Planet Fitness Diversity Inclusion and Equity policy and took exception to her activities.
