He just came to the US in September and is wondering if it's possible to bring his son who is 30 years old, unmarried to the US. The sponsor would be a Green card holder. If there is even a visa applicable for his case?

 

Thanks!

Yes, he can.  He files for I-130 for the son. But it will take 7 - 10 years before the process is done. Also, son must remain unmarried.
