She can apply for your GC anytime but as you said she was never used to leave here, then how she will provide affidavite for you? She needs to show some income/assets to sponsor you. Since youare on B1/B2 visa, obiviously you don't have any income. You can find somebody to become a Co-Sponsor.

She must have a residency in the US or in a US territory to apply for you too. Is she working?
Good luck,
