Sometimes it can be over 20 years, depending on the country (South Korea may be less) and the relative's relation to you. Certain relatives, like spouses and minor children of a USC, have to wait much less, usually a year or less. This is because there is no limit to how many of them can come to the US every year. For others, like siblings and parents, the wait can be quite long because they have to wait for a slot to open up...there are only so many visas to go around. It would help if you would say how your relatives are related to you because it would be easier to give you a more accurate estimate on how long they will have to wait.

You can not file for a brother in law.
