回答: 请教8老师, H4签证之特别问题YUNYUNHE2015-05-10 14:37:26
尊敬的8老师,
首先非常感谢长期以来你对大家的移民问题的热心解答。

我的朋友,他本人,绿卡等待期,他小孩,H4 签证;小孩大学在读,将很快满21岁,但小孩的H4签证将一直有效到超过21岁, 并且将继续到两年以后, 在那个时候小孩大学已经毕业。 他了解21岁后,小孩将不能跟他继续申请绿卡。
-If the parent has filed I-140, then it is still possible the child may join in the parent's green card application as long as the child CSPA age is < 21.
The child CSPA age = the child actual age when the priority date is current - the I-140 pending time.
Note: I-140 pending time = I-140 approval notice date - I-140 receipt date.


 现在的问题是,小孩手中的H4签证:

问题1:本H4签证在小孩21岁后,是否继续有效?
-No. The child's H-4 status automatically expires when the child turns 21 years old. So, the child has to file the change of status (e.g. H-4 to F-1) application before he/she turns 21.

 
问题2:美国政府在小孩21岁后,会否发通知告知签证问题?
-No. You have to be responsible for your personal status validity.

 问题3:如果没有收到任何通知,继续使用本签证,在小孩以后自己申请绿卡时,会有何风险?
-If the child does not change the H-4 status to another status (e.g. F-1) before turning 21, then he/she will be out of status/illegally present when he/she turns 21, and thus he/she will have trouble in the future.


到目前为止, 在个人方面,似乎没有任何错误。
