I have already submitted a green card petition for my spouse, however, we wish to change the name of our child. Would this affect the visa processing of my spouse and child? Can I file any additional documents to support this?

Immigration attorneysIn order to change the name of your child, you may have to make an application to the superior court.

Immigration attorneysOnce you have the legal name change completed with the Court, submit a copy to the agency where your EB-5 case currently resides. If still at the I-526 stage, then hold the document and submit at the DS-260 or I-485 stage.

Immigration attorneysYou should legally change the name of your child; when it comes time to process the residence visa, you will present the name change documents.
