I don't believe you can file for your mother in law. Your spouse (the actual child of your mother) could file for her, if your spouse is a USC.

The sponsor must be a USC, and must be a direct blood relative of the beneficiary. Mother in Law is not a blood relative.

Scratch all that!! I see you want a NONIMMIGRANT visa for a temporary visit, correct?

If so, your mother in law doesn't need you to sponsor her. She should file directly at her US Consulate.
