There is no amnesty for undocumented. And a sister cannot petition for her brother until she becomes a citizen (and it has nothing to do with his age).

One must be a US citizen in order to petition for a sibling. There is no amnesty at this time.

Only US citizens can file a petition for their brothers/sisters. There is no law or immigration reform giving amnesty to undocumented.

No the Petitioner must be a U.S. citizen. The Beneficiary can be any age - married or not and derivatives would benefit as well.

You need to be a US citizen to petition for brother or a sister. There is no amnesty yet.

No, the sister must be a citizen and the law may be changing.
