Hi guys.

 

I am a US citizen and I want to bring my sister to live in the USA legally.

 

she is currently in Venezuela but I want to know how much time do I have to wait for her to be here?

 

Thank You so much.

About 20 years assuming you are a USC

“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.”

Give or take a year. File the I-130 for your sister now - there's no point in waiting unless you don't want to petition for her.

A year?! More like 15-20 years for a sibling visa.

I was responding to Boiler's 20 year estimate.

There is no quick way, file the I-130 ASAP.  My mom petitioned for my aunt, who became a US citizen a couple of weeks ago.  Even though the wait is long, time will pass.
