Hello everyone! I am a U.S. Citizen from the Philippines. I filed my I-130 for my Mom and is currently transferred to TSC from CSC last week. I am now planning to file more I-130 for my two married sisters. However, I am also thinking to just wait for my mother to come here as permanent resident and then she will be the petitioner for my two married sisters. I am wondering if there are VJyaers out there who had same dilema or situation as mine. I will appreciate if you will share how long it actually took to bring a sibling of a U.S.C. and or for a permanent resident mom to bring her married children here. Please advise. Thank you.

she can't. Residents cannot file for married children, only for

unmarried ones. only USC can file for married children.

you will have to file for them.

You can file for them but it is a very very long wait for them ( 20+ years currently) once your mom arrives and gets her citizenship ( 5 years ) she can also file for them.

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.
