How can I petition my minor children to US, I have acquired a green card through marriage to a US Citizen?
angel06 asked:
I filed a divorce in US for my previous marriage in the Philippines. I am now married to a US Citizen and I want to petition my children who are below 12. What are the procedures and how long does it normally take.

Does my ex-husband needs to sign a consent that our children can migrate to US?

I do not know the answers, but can tell you where to start – look up the US immigration website regarding the procedure. You will need to look up Phillippines law about taking them out of that country – and i would assume that you do need their father’s consent.

Have your American husband file an I-130 for each of them. There is no quota and so they should be here in less than a year. Philippine law will be the determining factor as to what it takes to get them out of the country. I suggest you consult with a Family Law Attorney in the Philippines.
