Hi - if I am applying for parents Immigrant visa, do I put the info for my other siblings who are all over 21 years of age, and not being applied for on the Family section of the petition for Alien Relative, my sibling is a GC holder via employment.
In our office, we usually put all sons and daughters of the beneficiaries on the I-130 form. I note that the form itself does not limit the term "children"although the Immigration and Nationality Act defines children as being under the age of 21 and unmarried. Also, the form instructions refer to both "unmarried children"and "married children". Additionally, some of our clients are uncomfortable with the idea of leaving out any of the 21+-year-old children, and so we generally include them. If there is a reason for which our clients do not wish to mention such children, we will leave them out.
