@Lakhani I don't think you can sponsor your siblings in the same application. Unlike your parents, your kids or spouse, they're not considered your immediate relatives.

Your parents can sponsor them once they become LPRs. That will be quicker than you filing separate petitions for them.

separate I 130 for each parent

if u file for siblings ( 1130 for each of them),  the wait time is over 10 years

There are no derivatives  allowed on immediate relative petitions (parents are IR5). There is no way they can all come together.  Fastest /cheapest way without leaving little kid alone is for one the parents to get a green card then that parent sponsors spouse + minor children as derivatives.  However there is a high chance of the older sibling aging out if they are already 19 - they can still be sponsored by the parent as long as they remain unmarried, but will take longer.

You apply for everybody individually.

Hi,

 

I want to sponsor my both parents and 2 minor unmarried siblings (11 and 19 years old). Can I apply for both the siblings with my parents or Is there an age restriction for any of the siblings?

Each parent and each sibling will require a separate I-130.  They cannot all immigrate together.  @SusieQQQ gave you the best method to get them all to the US.
