  If the child in the US is his and the child is under the age of legal independence or under and has not been legally emancipated he counts as fully dependent  a child that is over the age of adulthood and still living at home is partially dependent. 

So if the petitioner has a child in the US, they need to include them as a dependent in the I-134 even if they didn't claim them as such on the tax return?

Thanks in advance. :)

  Yes that child is dependent on both of their parents until they are the age of adulthood.   You would count the child as long as they are under that age.   Should the other parent die or become unfit you could find the child in your home.  They are covering that possibility.

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.
