Can Immediate Relatives Have Derivative Beneficiaries?
Immediate relatives who are the principal beneficiary of an I-130 cannot bring derivative beneficiaries. A separate I-130 petition must be filed for every single qualifying immediate relative. However, beneficiaries of an I-130 under family preference can bring along derivative beneficiaries.
