The citizen can certainly file the visa petition for the sibling in Germany and it would normally be approved. The "bar" issues arise when the quota number is reached many years from now.

Would this situation be consider a removal?

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
As you received your permanent resident card the year following the refusal of your admission, you were not removed from the country. A removal order would bar you for 5 years if in a summary removal process, and 10 years in the regular process. Removal orders also come with a plethora of paperwork to allow you to understand that you have been removed. So your situation would not be considered a removal.  Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
