Parents in USA as citizen

[malidar]

My parents are in USA as citizen now and I am also in USA as H1B. Can they sponsor me so I may get green card in short time. I have also applied for green card (labor is pending) thru my employer. That is going to take time. Is there any chance that my parents citizenship could help me for green card.
Thanks

it depends if you are unmarried under 21, unmarried over 21, or married.

check out the current bulletin for different preferences timeline

you do not have to wait for the visa number becoming current if you are unmarried under 21. otherwise, you would have a long line to wait.
