      Let \(\{X_ i\}\), \(i>0\), be an arbitrary and \(\{Y_ i\}\), \(i>0\), be a positive integer-valued sequence of i.i.d. random variables. Let \(X_ i(t)\), \(i>0\), be a sequence of i.i.d. Bellman-Harris processes, such as \(X_ i(0)=Y_ i\), \(X_ i(t)=0\) for \(t<0\) and \(T_ i\) be a lifetime of \(X_ i(\cdot)\). Then age dependent branching processes with state- dependent immigration at 0 (a.d.p.s.d.i.) \(Z(t)\) are defined as \[ Z(t)=\max_{n\geq 0}\left\{X_{n+1}\left(t-\sum_{i=1}^ n (X_ i+T_ i)\right)-X_{n+1}\right\}. \] A branching process with two types of immigration \(Z_ 0(t)\) is as follows: with the event times of the renewal process a random number of independent new a.d.p.s.d.i. \(\{Z(t)\}\) are introduced into the medium. Asymptotics of all moments (and same corollaries by that) for \(Z(t)\), \(Z_ 0(t)\) and for the total number of cells born by \(t\) in \(Z(t)\) and \(Z_ 0(t)\) are given in the issue for a critical process \((E\{X_ i(t) \mid X_ i(0)=1\}=1)\).
