Derivate family member

Can someone Tell me how to add a derivate family member

You cannot add a derivative to an IR1/CR1 (or any other USC immediate family) petition.

 

Do you have an F2A petition?

Really!! They gave me the option to put them on joint to immigrate at the same time as then and I said yes. I’m really confused right now can you please explain how isn’t this possible when they gives me that option🤔🤔🤔🤔

If you are talking about the petition - then you failed to understand that each beneficiary requires a petition under 201(b).  One for your spouse, a child, a mother or a father.

Where did they give you the option to have a joint petition?

I guess I did misunderstand😔 so how long will they  have to wait after my parents get here to petition for them?

When I was filling the ds260 they ask if they want to immigrate with them at the same time or later

Depends on what service center the petitions get sent to.   They may also not go to the same one.

https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

. . . 5 to 7 months as an example for Texas.

 

But it isn't going to be that simple for your sister:

If you file for her - then when your sister gets to the NVC a visa number will need to be available for F4 category with is a 13 year + wait depending on the country.

 

Your mom should come first - since she is about ready and then file for your sister on arrival. That would make her F2B category with is "CURRENT" at the moment.  You still file for your dad.

Yes I’m a citizen filling just for both of my parents I never fill out for my sister or my stepfather I justa was thinking they can come with my parents since I mark the immigrate now button because that was an opción on the ds260 form. So would my little sister come here without any problem since I never file no I 130 for her still after my father gets here and petition for her

Both you and a parent can file for her.   Think of it as insurance,

 

Your post isn't clear - You can only file for your step father depending on how old you were when they married.  Your mother would be able to file for him as an LPR.

You said there is no button to add a derivative because it’s not an option in your case. 

 

In DS 260 where it asks for if your spouse or children is immigrating with you is a general question and not necessarily for derivative. Like your father and mother will have individual ds260 and they can say the  spouse is immigrating with them on their individual ds260 if they are planning together to immigrate.

 

For your siblings, either you can start a new petition thru i130 or your parents can after they immigrate to the US and become LPRs.
