    Default Married an American, Was Here on an L1 - Confused with Forms

    I have been living in the USA for 5 years and my L1 visa renewal is up at the end of December, however i just married my long term boyfriend so am now attempting to complete all the forms to submit a change of status.

    I understand I have to complete the following forms - I130, I485, I765, G325A (both of us) and I864 and submit with paperwork to back everything up i.e. marriage license, birth certificates etc.

    My question is, i have a child (12yrs old) from my previous marriage who resides with me full time and has lived with my in the USA since we moved here - do i have to complete any forms for him or just show his name in section 17 on the form I130?

    Thank you for your help

    Your spouse will need to submit a separate petition for your child. In other words, your son needs his own I-130 and I-485 forms filed on his behalf.
