To petition to bring your Sibling (brother or sister) to live in the United States as a Green Card holder, you MUST be a U.S. Citizen and at least 21 years of age. Permanent Residents MAY NOT petition to bring siblings to live permanently in the United States.

It MUST be established that the Petitioner and Beneficiary are or once were "children of a common parent".

A consanguineous (blood) relationship between the Petitioner and the Beneficiary is NOT required. The parent-child relationship can be established through birth, through adoption, or through a marriage creating a step-relationship, as in the case of a stepparent-stepchild relationship.    

Separate visa Petitions are not required for a Brother’s or Sister’s Spouse or his or her unmarried Children under 21 years of age. They may accompany or follow to join the Beneficiary.    

It is important to note that the wait times for Sibling Petitions are extraordinarily long due to the number of applicants allowed to immigrate under the Sibling Category each year and the per country limitations or quotas that regulate the total number of applicants from certain countries that are allowed to immigrate. The Siblings of U.S. Citizens and their Spouses and minor Children are at the bottom of the list in the Family Fourth Preference (F4) Category.

Filing a petition is only the first step in the process to help a Sibling immigrate to the United States. The filing and/or approval of a petition does NOT give your Parent any status in the United States. If your Sibling lives OUTSIDE of the United States, there is NO avenue for your Sibling to enter the United States prior to immigrating on the basis of a pending petition.  In most instances, the Beneficiary of a pending or approved immigrant visa will not be eligible for a nonimmigrant visa, although certain exceptions may apply.
