@varshil_shh , as a resident for tax purposes i.e. neither a US citizen NOR a permanent Resident of US, the immigration of your children  is dependent on your own   since they are on dependent visa.  However, if  you have a child whom is  born on US soil  then the situation changes.  Current law still assumes  US citizenship  on all US born individuals and therefore eligible for SSN.  All US hospitals where a child is born offers  to apply for SSN ( for the child) -- all they need is the parents' identification  ( Driver's license and Tax id -- generally SSN ).

 

Is this what you are asking about or am I in the left field ?
