nephew to come to study

[paustin 1]

Hello, my nephew wants to come here to study because the university here is much better and his parents can afford it. But 5 years ago, I petition my sister to come here on Green card, and on the application she lists her husband and my nephew as her child (they are not here yet). Now that my nephew wants to come here to study, will that cause any issues? Can we check that box that ask "have someone petition you..? " as yes?

Not a problem.

First, you petitioned for your sister. You did not petition for your nephew. Therefore, no one has ever petition for your nephew.

As long as your nephew is honest about the petition for his mother, then he is not likely to have any problems.
