My wife would like her sister to come to U.S

She's the permanent resident and i am the U.S citizen, how do we go on about getting her a visa to come and visit ? And how long do they usually take?

You don't do anything for the sister. The sister applies for a tourist visa, by herself, at the US Consulate in her country. It doesn't take long.

How old is she???

she's like 26 i think...so we dont have to send visas from here? All she has to do is apply for a tourist visa? I doubt it they even give tourist visas in my country Kosovo.

That is not a visit visa. That is to move permanently to the USA for life. The OP stated they want the sister to just visit.

good luck trying, most people applying for visitors visas unless they are really rich and have real ties to their home country have a hard time getting visas at least when it comes to Serbia and the regions around them.

Kosovo has a 29% refusal rate for B2 visas, which seems not so bad (not great, but could be worse). http://www.travel.state.gov/pdf/FY11.pdf
