Sibling Green Card Overview & Benefits

Sibling Green Card Overview & Benefits

The Sibling Green Card (F4 category) allows U.S. citizens who are 21 or older to sponsor their brothers and sisters for lawful permanent residence. Spouses and unmarried children under 21 of the sibling can also immigrate as dependents. Because of annual limits, wait times are long often more than a decade but this pathway provides a clear route for family reunification and eventual citizenship.
