No. First of all, you cannot file for civil partnership in California. You can register a domestic partnership or legally marry a same-sex partner in California. The US federal government does not currently recognize domestic partnerships or civil unions for the purposes of Immigration and naturalization. Same-sex marriages are, however, recognized.
