US Immigration Rule Change Threatens Green Card Status for H1B Children

Starting August 15, 2025, a new US rule might change how children of H1B visa holders get Green Cards.

If these children turn 21, they could lose their chance to get a Green Card even if their parents are still waiting.

The new rule will use a specific date from the Visa Bulletin to figure out how old the children are for Green Card purposes.

This change is important because many people from India have H1B visas, so it could affect them a lot.

This rule makes the process the same whether the family applies from inside or outside the US.

Older applications will still follow the old rules.
