In this brief advisory segment, the speaker addresses a viewer named Netsaly who asks whether, as a U.S. citizen, she can sponsor her mother and sister who reside in the Dominican Republic. The speaker confirms that a U.S. citizen may file family-based immigration petitions (Form I-130) for both parents and siblings simultaneously. She notes that the mother’s petition is likely to progress more quickly than the sister’s. The speaker outlines the categories of relatives a citizen can sponsor—parents, spouse, siblings, and children (both single and married)—and emphasizes that the first step is to submit an I-130 petition for each relative.
