Up to what age does a U.S. citizen’s child count as an ‘immediate relative’?
I’m researching relief options for immediate relatives who are out of status.
I’ve heard that a U.S. citizen’s parent (regardless of the citizen’s age being over 21) and a citizen’s minor child both qualify as immediate relatives.
I’d like to know whether ‘minor child’ means under 21, or whether any unmarried child qualifies regardless of age.
A U.S. citizen’s ‘immediate relative’ includes a parent, spouse, and unmarried child under 21. If a child is under 21 but married, they fall outside the ‘immediate relative’ category.
