You went to Sydney consulate? If they are permanent residents as in green cards ask them to send you copies of them by email. And maybe an employment record.

Oh no sorry i'm from Brazil,will a copy of there passport do any good ?

Does it have a valid work visa or tourist visa in it?

Legal status living in the USA is generally a copy front and back of the green card.

Oh ok you have Australia as your country is all . The embassy will want their Green cards not passports as they are for travel not residency. SO get them to scan their GC and send to you from US.

They are legal in the us and have a legal us passport

Have them make a copy of the first page (photo and info) and scan them to you. That should be sufficient for embassy.

If your siblings are US citizens, have them make a scan (they should have it already in their computer!) of either the data page (the double page) of their US passports or their Certificate of Naturalization.

For the future, Mate, learn this: if some government official asks you about the immigration status of a family member or whether they are legal in the US or allowed to work in the US, there is a magic sentence: "they are US citizens."

It's the equivalent to a magic bullet killing the bad spirits.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
