As a US citizen, can I file for my brother who is in the US on a visit and how long will the process take?

Julia Ridgway Binger
Answered by attorney Julia Ridgway Binger (Unclaimed Profile)

Yes, you can file a petition (I-130) for him, whether he is here or not.  Besides the petition and filing fee, you would need to submit copies of proof of your US citizenship and documentation (normally, birth certificates with English translations) showing that you have at least one parent in common. You should know, however, that due to the quota system, it takes many years for a beneficiary of a petition filed by a US citizen sibling to be able to get legal residence.  (They are now giving legal residence to beneficiaries of sibling petitions filed about 12 years ago -  and much longer for citizens of Mexico and the Philippines).  In the meantime, he must abide by the terms of his nonimmigrant visa and leave the US when he is supposed to, in order to avoid accruing unlawful presence. The benefit of filing a petition now is that it preserves his place in line (his 'priority date').

It may still be possible for you to help your mother, but more information is needed. What are the exact dates that your mother has ever entered and left the United States from her very first entry?
