Hi. I'm a US Citizen, and I have a 15 yr old sister. If I want to bring her to the states, what would be the most quick way? Can I bring my parents and since she's under 21, she can come along with parents or do I have to file it differently?

Thanks in advance!

Take a look at the visa bulletin to get a feel of the timeline.

It looks like the wait is a little over 10 years to get the petition processed.

Good luck :thumbs:

If you want them to come together, petition for sibling, a year or so before her petition comes due petition for parents.
