I'm going to apply for my citizenship this September, when I become I citizen I'm planning to petition my mom and I have 2 siblings that are under 18 can I petition them also since there under age? Do I need to have fill out 3 application?

3 Petitions.

There is no age issue with siblings, 18 or 80 all the same.

I'd suggest you only petition your mother ( IR5 ) and as soon as she gets green card then she can petition her children as it will be faster since both of them are under 21 which fall under F2A category

Or if you choose to petition all of them then you'll need 3 petition because your siblings cannot follow to join.

I heard tha if I potion my mom my sibling can tag along since there minor and it's much faster that way

If I petition my mom it takes a while for her to get green card and my sibling will be 21 and it's much harder for them to bring here

No USC 's siblings will fall under F4 category which will take more than 8 years

However if your mother ( as soon as she becomes PR ) then she will petition them and they will be F2A beneficiaries and the wait times are shorter ( ~2 years )

Choices are your

Not true.

When a USC petitions a parent, only the parent gets a visa.

Derivative beneficiaries are not allowed.

There is no law that allows your siblings to immigrate with your mom.

Sorry.

You have no choice.

After my mom get here how long will it take for her to get her permanent resident?

0 seconds.

As soon as she enters the US on the immigrant visa, she automatically becomes a permanent resident.

LPR requires her to live in the US. A green card is not for her to live outside the US with a few visits to the US. This is important if your mom intends to petition for her unmarried children.

Prepare the papers for your petition for your mom while you're on the process of your naturalization. Once you receive your certificate of Naturalization, make a copy, add to the papers of your mom then submit right away. When your mom's interview gets closer, prepare the papers for your younger siblings, for their I 130, just leave the ssn blank as of that time and gather other documents like birth certificates... Once your mom arrives here and after she receives her social security number ( needed in i130 ), complete the form, print them, add with the other requirements, photocopy your mom's passport with the visa on it ( once she enters, there's that thing there which can be use as an evidence for green card which is good for once year while waiting for the physical green card) then send them to the USCIS.

I dId that before...was trying to get my two youngest sibs, 19.5 yo and 18 yo at that time. Was anxious that my brother will not catch up because it was taking 2 years for f2a at that time and he was turning 20 on that year. Thankfully, by God's will, the approval took a long time at CSC, about 15 months so he had 15 months extra when he turned 21 plus his priority date became current a month before he turned 21. So even if he is already 21 turning 22 this month, he just got his visa and arriving in a week;) God bless and good luck to you;)
