Child Status Protection Act (CSPA)

Claim

An amendment to the immigration and nationality act passed in 2002 (public law 107-208). the cspa helps children applying for green cards or visas, either in family-based immigration categories or as derivatives on a parent’s asylum application, to maintain their eligibility even after they reach age 21. that’s the age at which, in immigration law terms, people are normally too old to be considered “children.”
