Answered by attorney Eric M. Mark
Immigration lawyer at The Law Office of Eric M. Mark
The I-130 will continue to process. However, having left the U.S. triggers a 10 year ban that requires an additional waiver when the I130 is approved.

Can i have my son on my green card status?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
By your green card preparation forms, you could mean either I-130 petition for alien relative or I-140 petition for alien worker or I-485 application to adjust status to permanent residence or DS-260 application for immigrant visa. If on either of the first 2, you can add your son in the next phase of the case, either on the I-485 or the DS-260. That assumes that you will both be interviewing at the same time at the same place. You would be filing another form I-485 or DS-260 on behalf of your son at the same time that you are submitting your applications. If you have already filed your I-485 or DS-260, you would be filing the same forms for your son. For an I-485, there is a good chance that your adjudication will come prior to that of your son. For a DS-260, you would have better chance of having the files put together so that you can both interview at the consular post at the same time.
