Packet 3 forms and USC child

[charlottelizabeth 11]

I have a little dilemma, if anyone could help me. I am filling out the necessary forms for packet 3 and I'm wondering if I need to write down my son's details as well? He is 15 months old and already an American Citizen so I'm a little confused as to whether he is still considered 'immigrating' or not? Does his name need to be included on the Affidavit of Support/s? And would he need to have a medical as well?

Thanks in advance for any help!

He's a USC, so no, as he doesn't need to immigrate. He could be shipped off to live in the US tomorrow with no bother. Does he have a US passport (that would be the only paperwork he'd need)?

Affidavit, he's counted as part of your household size. He's not a sponsored immigrant, though.

No all that needs to be done is count him in the "family" size that is all. He is a USC. I had a doctors receptionist here in Brisbane not believe me when I said my daughter has never lived there but she doesn't have to have any injections or X-rays. She said that cant happen and she would have to get all the same as me.... Which is not true....

Too many people offer advice that have no idea...lol
