I married a US Citizen. I am applying for Green Card. My parents have been in the US for 17 years. They never left the country. My parents have their work authorization and SSN card. They are legal to work only in the US.
There is no visa category by which a U.S. citizen may petition for a mother-in-law or a father-in-law, or by which a Permanent Resident may petition for parents. You mentioned that your parents are legal to work in the U.S., but you did not mention their current nonimmigrant visa status. There really is no substitute for your family to consult with an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant information about your family members, could advise about potential immigration eligibilities, options and strategies to attain your goals.
