In order to obtain a K-4 visa for a child of my spouse, must I file a separate Form I-130 on his or her behalf?
In order for a child to obtain a K-4 visa, there is no requirement that a separate immigrant petition (Form I-130) be filed on the child’s behalf. However, a separate Form I-130, filed on the child’s behalf, is required for the child to adjust status.
Will my K-3 or K-4 Get a Work Permit?
Upon admission, K-3 and K-4 visa holders are entitled to obtain employment authorization because of their status. They can obtain evidence of eligibility to work legally in the United States by filing Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, with the required fee. Upon filing an application for adjustment of status, K-3 and K-4 visa holders may also apply for employment authorization on the basis of that pending application even if the K-3 or K-4 status expires.
