Q: I applied for my wife i-130 to come to US, our daughter was born abroad and is us citizen. Do i need to sponser my child
My wife and I got married in her country and i am a us citizen. We had a baby together while i applied for her i-130. Then i applied for my baby daughter to be citizen. She got her US passport and lives with her mom still. My i-130 for my wife got approved. Now i have to finish the sponsership i-864 to get her visa. Do i need to add my daughter and sponser her aswell to i-864 as an immigrant traveling with my wife. Because she is already a US citizen, does she need to be sponsered or no? Because she is already a citizen? I dont want to bring my daughter alone even though she has a passport. Thank you very much
A: No, you do not need to sponsor your U.S. Citizen daughter. She will be added to the household size calculation, however, on the Form I-864. Consider scheduling a consultation with a competent and experienced immigration attorney if you need assistance completing any necessary forms.
