It depends on whether your parents are in the US or outside the US. IF they are in the US and are eligible, they can file the I-485 forms. If they are abroad, you will need to wait for the I-130 petitions on their behalf to be approved and you will get additional instructions from the National Visa Center for the consular processing stage. Please let me know if you have any additional questions or how I can be of further assistance to you in this matter.

You will receive either a request for further evidence or approval. Once the approval is granted by USCIS, the file will then get transferred to the US Department of State for overseas consular processing. Your parents will then receive notice requesting them to appear for an interview. If the interview goes well and the consular approves the application, then they will be given the permission to come to the USA.

It depends if your parents live abroad or in the U.S. If they live abroad, most likely two other forms will be in order.

You will want to review this with an attorney - it will depend upon where your parents are and what their plans are.
