I am the main EB-5 applicant, with my two kids and my husband under my application. My kids and I already received our green cards, but my husband got his immigrant visa and green card later than me (both of us have different green card expiration dates). When it is time to file the I-829 petition, can I include my husband in the petition? Or does he need to wait until he has resided in the United States for 1 year and 9 months?
