ace,
first of all , i am very sorry that you ‘ve lost your brother, plus i don’t know how you petition for your brother’s family with him himself, cause it is technicaly impossible through F4. any way unfortunately they can’t get Green Card. but i can suggest you to adopt your nephew(s) if younger than 21.

mahnaz rashidi , my priority day is july 6 1997 same category as you, it seems like we are going to have to wait. a least 10 more years before we get there, so i can advise you not to worry and let the time get by, we will get there eventually
