If a child turns 21 while their immigration application is pending, they may be considered “Aged out” and may no longer be eligible for the immigration benefit they were seeking. This can be a devastating situation for both the child and the family.

However, there are certain protections available under the Child Status Protection Act (CSPA). CSPA enables children who have aged out to retain their child status for immigration purposes, allowing them to continue with their immigration application. To be eligible for CSPA, the child must have been under 21 years of age at the time the initial immigration petition was filed on their behalf, and the delay in the processing of their application must have been caused by factors outside of their control.

If your child has aged out and you’re concerned about their immigration status, MJ IMMIGRATION CONSULTANT® (PAK USA Immigration) can help.
