More details to this question:
My parents lived in the US for 13 years and left the country to attend my brother's wedding. They have been living outside of the country for 3 years now, but would like to return (especially to spend time with the grandkids). Is there any way I can apply for them being a US citizen?

Your parents will need a waiver to return, as there is a 10 year bar due to unlawful presence. However, you should verify that as well as what you need to do with an Immigration attorney.
