Hi all,

Help me out here....I seem to remember that the Canadian's child can enter up to 6 months following their parent. Does anyone remember where I might review that info again?

Since it seems that our interview might not be till Sept/Oct (gasp :( ).....there is potential that my teenager will be in the middle of a semester by the time we move or close to exams even so I'm thinking that we'd go down first and then she could follow later with my parents.


I'm curious whether all our papers will be in 1 single envelope from the embassy or whether it's separate for person


I indicated on 1 of the Package 3 forms that she would be accompanying me....which she is eventually, but should I perhaps mention this at the interview so they could prepare separate packages in case?

If there's anyone out there who's either been through it or about to...feel free to share

K2 children can follow ("Follow-to-join") up to a year later.

I couldn't find information for K2 in USCIS site, but I did find information on the Department of State Site:

Hopefully this URL works...

Thanks,

Scott.

a K-2 can be issued up to one year after the K-1 was issued. once a K-1/K-2 has been issued, you have up to six months to enter the USA.
