I know I have to be a citizen if I like the process to go faster

( and will probly aply for in the beginning of the new year )

does my Son who is going to be 22 in jan has to wait to get aproved for a visa number once i file the I 130 ,

my question is once I file and he gets aproved he is canadian and comes to visit us 3-4 times a year,

would he be able to file AOS from here ?

and how long exactly does the whole process take for a citizen to get the child over 21 here ,

as well as how long does it take if a permanent resident where to aply to get the child here ?

am wondering if I could do it before i become citizen

( I know i can , but what is the aprox wait time for eather from start to finish )

thank you for your answers

He cannot come here to visit as a Canadian with the intent to then stay and AOS, that would be immigration fraud and could result in a lifetime ban.

You can file for him now, and then upgrade if/when you become a citizen. Currently, if you stay a greencard holder, the wait for your son (if unmarried) is 5.5 years; if a citizen, it is just under 5 years (add 5-8 months of processing after that in either case).
