You must be a U.S. citizen to sponsor a sibling. The process includes a waiting period for a priority date once the petition (form I-130) is approved by immigration. It can be more than 20 years. But you must be a citizen first.

Is it possible to switch to a new immigration attorney from my attorney that I have even though I’m waiting for an interview for my significant other.

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
It is always possible to switch to another immigration attorney, but a few words of caution – your next attorney will probably want to see a copy of the entire file as he or she does not wish to be surprised by anything in your background or that has already been revealed to USCIS. You should ensure that your present attorney has your address or email so that he or she can send you copies of any communication received from USCIS. Also, your new attorney may very well be charging you a fee in excess of what you expect to pay. We have seen many times individuals who believe that they should only pay for part of the case because the former attorney did some work. To your new attorney, this is a new case, and he or she will have to go over the work that was previously done and remedy anything that may be deficient.
