Wait until you are a citizen

I think he can petition for them now - once he becomes a citizen it'll be upgraded.

I think one of the legal eagles here stated that this would be quicker than waiting until naturalisation. Maybe do a search?

If you are a lawful permanent resident, you are not eligible to petition to bring your parents to live and work permanently in the United States.

Oops - you're right - I was thinking of parents petitioning for their children....
