Can I include my adult children?

It is important to start by understanding that the EB-3 visa is intended for skilled workers, professionals, or other workers, and allows the beneficiary to include immediate dependents as defined by U.S. law. This category aims to facilitate the migration of individuals who have a job offer in the United States.

However, the rules for including family members are quite specific. In the case of the EB-3, U.S. immigration law permits the applicant to include their spouse and unmarried children under the age of 21 as dependents. Therefore, children who have already reached adulthood (over 21 years old) do not qualify as dependents who can be automatically added to the EB-3 visa petition.

This means that if your children are adults, they will need to pursue their own immigration path and cannot be included as accompanying dependents in your process. It is worth emphasizing that for all immigration processes, it is essential to strictly follow the laws and regulations of the United States.

It is recommended that, if you have any doubts or need more detailed guidance, you seek updated information through official channels and consult duly recognized specialized companies, always with caution to avoid scams or promises that guarantee inaccurate results.

I hope this information has clarified your question regarding the possibility of including adult children in the EB-3 process. If you need further clarifications on this or other immigration topics, continue to seek reliable sources and follow the country’s legal guidelines.
