Married v Single
Hi!
I understand that an unmarried child, over the age of 21, who is being
sponsored by a parent PR, loses that sponsorship right as soon as he/she
marries before his priority date becomes current.
I believe also that if the PR becomes a US citizen before the child marries,
then the original priority date is unaffected which is usually good news as
the priority usually becomes current due to a more favorable processing
timescale.
My question is this: If the child marries before the PR becomes a US
citizen, does this require a new I130 application with a new, and therefore
much later priority date, when the parent finally becomes a US citizen?
thanks,
mcb
