Cspa overview
If you are a United States Citizen petitioning on behalf of your child, yes, the CSPA prevents your child from "Aging Out." If you are a Legal Permanent Resident petitioning on behalf of your child, a formula for timing is clarified in the September 20, 2002, CSPA memo for you to review. The CSPA was enacted on August 6, 2002. This law amends the Immigration and Nationality Act by changing how an alien is determined to be a child for purposes of immigrant classification. This law changes who can be considered to be a "child" for the purpose of the issuance of visas by the Department of State and for purposes of adjustment of status of aliens by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Under the CSPA, if you are a United States citizen and you file a Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, on behalf of your child before he or she turns 21, your child will continue to be considered a child for immigration purposes even if the USCIS does not act on the petition before your child turns 21. Under the CSPA, if you are a lawful permanent resident and you file a Form I-130 on behalf of your child before he or she turns 21, your child's age will be determined using the date that the priority date of the Form I-130 becomes current, minus the number of days that the Form I-130 is pending. In addition, your child must seek to acquire the status of a lawful permanent resident within one year of visa availability. This provision also applies to derivative beneficiaries on family-based and employment-based petitions.
