Can a sister in law file papers for West African resident?

Answered by attorney Michael Alexander Yurasov-Lichtenberg (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at Havens Lichtenberg PLLC
If by "filing papers" you mean petitioning the U.S. Government for an immigrant visa that would give your brother-in-law ability to come to the U.S. and become a permanent resident, then the answer is No, you cannot file such papers. If your husband becomes a U.S. citizen, he would be able to petition for his brother's immigrant visa; but the process will take many years. On the other hand, if you only want your brother-in-law to come for the ceremony, you can write a letter to the U.S. Consul in his country, and that should help him get a visitor's visa.

Being a permanent resident, how long would it take to fix my husband's papers and would he have to leave for 10 years?

If he is out of status that could invoke the ten year bar if he leaves. You can certainly file the I-130, but then must weigh the consequences of the bar versus staying here and wait long until you're a citizen. Also, whether he has proof of legal entry is another issue. Also, he could be eligible for waiver of the ten year bar.
