Hi,

I just got my US citizenship 6 months ago and would like to filed I-130 for my unmarried sister and brothers > 21. I was wondering if anyone knows how long the wait would be since sibling is under the preference categories of the alien relatives. I know that a limited number of immigrant visas are issued each year. Anyone who went thru this process that knows the approximate wait time or any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Also, i plan to apply for my parents in the future after my grandparents pass away. Since they are classified as immeidate relatives, it will be a shorter wait for them, correct?

Thank you in advance for any comments or suggestions!

Parents will be lighting quick compared to your siblings. Parents of US citizens are not numerically limited. So for them, only processing time. Should be done within a year. Siblings are looking at 12-14 years.
