Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

Hello:

If she entered the U.S. legally, and you are over 21 years old, you can petition her right away. Please contact me for more information.

If she, however, came to USA illegally (without a visa), and if she is eligible for protection of the INA 245i, she might be able to apply for adjustment of status ('green card') if you (a daughter over 21 years of age) petition for her. If you are younger than 21, you can't petition for your mother.
