No. Eligible derivatives have their own applicable steps and records.
Plan the family sequence accurately
Review relationships, age and CSPA where relevant. Immigrant-visa derivatives enter with or after the principal; a shared petition milestone does not make every person’s residence date identical.
Approval brings two years of conditional permanent residence for the investor, the spouse and unmarried children under twenty-one, and the condition is removed only on evidence that the capital remained invested and the jobs were created and sustained. Derivative eligibility for a spouse and unmarried children under twenty-one is assessed against each person’s own relationship and age under the applicable rules, so a child approaching that threshold changes the household’s planning rather than the project’s. When the time comes to remove conditions, the investor files Form I-829 and the derivatives are generally included on it, though a spouse or child may need to file separately if the family situation has changed. Where derivative status is sought for a spouse and unmarried children under 21, the governing records are civil documents, being marriage and birth registrations, translations where required, and each person's own passport and immigration history. Child Status Protection Act calculations and family eligibility depend on the individual family's dates and the specific petition timeline, regardless of how the investment opportunity was sourced. Record each family member's country of birth as well, since chargeability generally follows birthplace rather than residence or passport and can change the waiting picture materially.
