Hi GUys! Im a Greencard Holder and petitioned my wife who's in the Philippines . As I understand my children are derivative beneficiary under the said petition so I only filed one petition w/c is for my wife. Somebody told me that once I got my Citizenship I can upgrade the petition for my wife thus will expedite the process of her getting to U.S.. but the bad news is, my kids (minor age) is no longer a derivative beneficiary.
What should I do?
1. Could I file separate petition for my kids now considering the fact that I'm just a permanent resident as of this time?
2. Will they (my kids) still be considered under my wife's petition even if I file separate petition for them?
3. If I file separate petition for my kids right now and get my US citizenship later can I upgrade my petition for them? How long will It take for them to get here in US if I do upgrade said petition after I got US Citizenship?
Thanks..
