Hi VJayers,

My mother is starting to organize the I-130 packet for my over 21 years old, unmarried brother. However, my brother has children though he is not married. The children are not living with him. Should we list his children in the I-130 form? Will USCIS question about the mother of his children? Again, my brother is not legally married but he has kids. He is in good relationship with the mother of his children though. If there is anyone who experienced this, please share. I will also appreciate your insights. Thanks.

Yes, the children must be listed. Never withhold any information on any immigration form. Obviously, the children will not be eligible to immigrate with him, but he could petition for them separately after he comes to the US.

Hi, He should list all of his children.

All of his children(under 21 years old) can immigrate with him at the same time if he wants to.

Just go to US embassy manila website to know more of the details.

Yes Jim.

I was on the same situation before, but decided to immigrate alone since my daughter was too young that time.

Ok, I thought this only applied to children of an F2A spouse.
