Apply for green card for my mother

Business 3 views 3 answers
I got my temporary green card this month, I need to know can I apply for my mother to get her green card? she lives in another country. Or should I wait until I get my permanent green card? How long does it take for her to get her green card if I apply as a green card holder, not a citizenship, for her?

You must be a US Citizen (older than 21) to sponsor your mother. You cannot file as a Legal Permanent Resident. Once you become a Citizen and file the process takes about a 6-10 months. Marc Taylor
