Hello everyone,
My question is whether my child who turns over 21 years old can be included as derivatives after I have filed for asylum?
Here is the explanation from USCIS: What happens if my child turns 21 after I have filed for asylum? (google it )
However, I still confused about some points of the statement.
The situation is that I did not include my child as a derivative on my asylum application at the time of filing. That time, my child is less than 21. So, he still maintained his F-1 visa status. Of course, he did not get the EAD card for working in u.s. However, I do listed all his information (name,birthday,nationality and so on ) on the I-589 at the time of filing. Now, he is over than 21 and I approximately will have an asylum interview in the coming May. Q1: Can I include him as derivatives during the interview period? Can he also be eligible for asylum with parents? Q2: Must he appear for the interview?
Also, I might divorce with my spouse recently. The question is i can not get a divorce certificate in a short time. So, I am confused what will happen if my spouse don’t come with me for the interview. Because I include my spouse as a derivative on my asylum application at the time of filing. Please let me know your suggestion.
Thank you so much. I am waiting for your reply.
