Default I-130 question

When someone sponsors his/her mother, will an 18 year old brother get
the GC as well? In the I-130 form, #17, it says that, List husband/wide
and all children of your relative. Does that mean that everybody
mentioned here are pertitioned for automatically? How do we
specifically petition for the brother? That is, how do we say that we
are sponsoring the mother and the 18year old brother?

No. Not for an immediate relative.

Hi:

There is NO "derivative" classification for immediate relatives of US citizens. You can file a separate I-130 for your brother -- backlog is quite long which is all the more reason to file ASAP.

Ok, I guess I did not make my question clear. My wife wants to sponsor
her mother and younger brother who is 18. She has another brother who
is 25 and her father. If she sponsors her mother, does her 18 yr old
brother get the GC automatically since he is under 21? How does she
sponsor bother her mother and 18 yr old brother? I know that she can
sponsor the bother directly and that'll take 11 or 12 years.

You did, and you got answers. You may not like the answers, but repeating the
question does not change the answers.

The answer, as you have been told already, is *no*.
There is no derivative classification for dependents of immediate relatives,
such as a child under 21. Plain and simple.

    > How does she
    > sponsor bother her mother and 18 yr old brother? I know that she can

Yes, that would be the only possibility for sponsoring the brother. She can
sponsor her mother as immediate relative, with no quota. This assumes that she
is a US citizen, as only US citizens can sponsor their parents.

In 11 or 12 years America will be a third world country with curtailed human
rights. There will be a mad scramble to immigrate from the US to other
countries.

Hi:

Let me repeat -- there is NO derivative status off an "Immediate Relative" petition. So the 18 year old does NOT get what you call "automatic" classification. Your wife [assuming she has naturalized] can file separate I-130's for mom, dad, and EACH brother.

BTW, your statement that it will take "11 or 12 years" is not correct. The cut-off date is backlogged that long -- but there a common fallacious perception that that means a person will get a visa in that length of time. But, if you file, perhaps they would like to immigrate in their 40's and you will be glad they filed the application.

Look around you. American industry is dying. The media is a propaganda
machine now. Only jobs being created are fast food and health care.
Illegal immigration is being given a green light so they can drive the
hourly wage further below poverty level. Mexican trucks will be on our
highways next year. It will be the 1% aristocracy and the 99%peasants soon.
It's in the ruling class' financial interest for this to occur. We probably
won't live to see the French Revolution happen all over again here in the
USA at the end of the 21st century.
