How long would it take for my brother to petition for me?

Answered by attorney Christine Victoria Troy (Unclaimed Profile)
Immigration lawyer at The Law Office of Christine Troy
It will take about ten years until you can apply for your green card based on that relationship. He can file the first step now, which will get you in line for the green card. If your father is a USC, he can also file for you. The wait time is about 7-10 years depending upon your marital status. I recommend you have a full consult with a competent immigration attorney to discuss your case in depth and to see if there is any risk potential for you by filing and also whether you would need to leave the US to get the green card and thereby trigger a ten year reentry bar.

Hello , I have a L 1A over a year now working in the US, my sister in 2017 filed a I-130 . What are my options to file for a green card without my com

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
As an L-1 A manager or executive, it is apparent that you have skills that could be used by organizations in the United States other than your present employer. Perhaps one of them could begin sponsoring you for permanent residence under a PERM labor certification while at the same time trying to get you on board through H-1B specialty occupation visa or some other means if it wishes you to work sooner. I cannot tell you all of your other options as I do not know your situation, but waiting on your sister's petition for you will take approximately another 10 years under the current backlog. During that time, you are not allowed to remain nor work in the US just because your sister has petitioned for you.
