Immigration Site

Hi,

I am US citizen and wish to petition both my mom and sister.

My mom I believe is fast but my sister could take a lot longer.

My sister is 34 years old, unmarried and has 2 kids (8 and 12).. She does live with the father of both kids but they are unmarried.

Both my mom and sister are mexican citizens and live in Mexico..

THis is what I think based on what I am reading but am not sure.

One way to bring my sister is for me to petition her now but she falls into the 4th family category and they are currently processing Mexico 4th category for priority date 7/1/1994.. This will take 13 years to be current.

Another way is to petition my mom.. From what I understand that is quick.. Wait 5 years for her to become a US citizen and then my mom applies for my sister... Not sure what category she falls into and how long she will have to wait if this path is taken.. Anybody know ?

Anybody here in this forum have any other ideas on how my sisters petition be quicker ?

Need to be sure before any action is taken

Thanks

Looking at the current visa bulletin, its still going to take a LONG time for your sister, regardless of whether your mother sponsors her or you do.

Thanks The fastest way for your sister would be if your mom files a petition for her (family 2A category) once she gets her green card. The current processing date is 01JAN01. Only, her husband wouldnt be able to immigrate with her. I believe, the kids would be beneficiaries of her case.

Shouldnt the OPs sister (single, not married) fall into F2B if sponsored by her mother?
