When you become a USC you can petition your mother to immigrate, takes about a year.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Hello please I will like tips on how to go about inviting my mum to the US.... my wife is having our baby soon... I am a green card holder while my wife is a citizen.... we wanna know how to go about inviting my mum from Nigeria

there is no hard and fast rule for a B2 for a person from a high fraud country(as per USCIS). its purely on the VO's discretion or by fluke as far as the applicant is concerned. yes, the applicant has to prove enough ties to the native country. stable job, previous travel,property owned and siblings or parents to take care of. are some of the examples but see even if an applicant satisfies this. there is no guarantee for B2. the process is shabby.good luck to you.

You will send her an invitation letter and she will apply through the embassy for a visa, she will be giving without stress.

This is not true. Invitation letters from a USC or LPR are not needed, sometimes they can hurt more than help. She has to apply on her own merits showing strong ties to Nigeria and that she will return.

Does she have a good job? Property? Strong family ties?

Mom can apply for a tourist visa to come see the new grandbaby for a few weeks, as mentioned she needs strong ties to home, and she cannot babysit during that time (as that is taking work away from a US citizen you may otherwise pay to be a nanny/ babysitter). She is just here to see her son and grandbaby.

If you want her to come permanently, then you need to wait until you are a US citizen, and then petition for her for a family immigration visa. She needs no ties to home for that.
