Our view may be controversial, but we believe that the husband has not applied for anything where the only application is an I-130 petition by your sister for you. We also believe that dependents on immigrant petitions only make applications when they file immigrant visa application forms themselves - either form I-485 application to adjust status to permanent residence in the U.S. or DS-230 application for immigrant visa and alien registration for overseas processing at the American consulates.
