Your mother is considered an immediate relative. Thus, all sponsorship paperwork can be filed concurrently when she is in the U.S. She will be able to continue to remain in the U.S. and obtain permanent resident status as long as the sponsorship paperwork is filed on a timely basis, i.e., prior to expiration of her authorized stay in the U.S. as shown on Form I-94 issued at port-of-entry. We have additional information about family sponsorship categories here: www.h1b1.com/sponsor.htm

If your mom enters as a nonimmigrant visitor but her real intention is to apply for permanent residence, this could result in the denial of her application, deportation and revocation of her visitor's visa.
