The immigrant investor petition covers the investor and, as derivatives, a spouse and unmarried children under twenty-one at the relevant time, with the Child Status Protection Act affecting how a child's age is calculated during processing. A spouse or unmarried child under 21 may qualify through the relevant principal, subject to the applicable relationship and CSPA rules; a joint account supplies no shortcut around them. A child who reaches twenty-one during the process can lose eligibility, although provisions exist that may protect a child’s age in defined circumstances, and those provisions have to be checked against the particular timeline. The common mistake is tying school or housing commitments to a rough petition forecast while ignoring visa availability, admissibility, and separate travel sequencing.
