I am a naturalized US citizen and would like to sponsor my brother for a green card. What are the available options and which would be the fastest?

Generally speaking, people immigrate to the US through family relations or employment skills. Unless born in India, your brother's immigration under employment which in most cases involves a sponsoring employer would be a much faster way for him to come. If he does not have the option, perhaps your sponsorship of him would be his best and only option. Although anyone who has been petitioned for US immigration has immigrant intent and visitors are only supposed to have nonimmigrant intent, US consular officers and border officials are cognizant of the long time involved in a sibling petitioned case and are usually only interested in determining that an individual's trip to the US during the time of processing is truly temporary and that he or she has a definite intent to return to the home country at the end of the time of visiting.
