No. Your sponsor must already be a U.S. resident so you, as a non-resident, cannot sponsor yourself. Think if you have any relatives, friends, or employers who you can ask to sponsor you!

How can a mother with a green card get her son to usa?

Not necessary since the child is a US citizen by birth. Before the child is 18 years of age you need to apply for US citizenship certificate using immigration Form N-600. If the question is referring to the PARENT of the US-born child getting a green card, then there is no special way to do this: you will have to wait until your child is 21, after which they can then sponsor you for a green card. Merely being the parent of a US Citizen does not automatically entitle one to a green card immediately (or automatically).

Can you apply for a green card if your dad is a us citizens?

If yGetting a family-based Green Card is a two-step process. The first step is the "Immigrant Petition" which establishes that a qualifying relationship exists between the U.S. Citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident and the Green Card applicant. The second step is the Green Card application. If the sponsor is a U.S. Citizen and the Green Card applicant is a spouse, parent or minor childwho is currently in the U.S., then these two steps can usually be combined into one. Otherwise, applicants must wait for the Immigrant Petition to be approved before they can move on to the Green Card application.


What happens if a US citizen gets convicted of a crime before their alien spouse gets their green card?

As a US citizen, you can sponsor an alien for U.S. Green Card application for the the immediate relatives of a U.S. citizen, such as your wife. But as a convicted criminal, most likely you are in jail, with little or no income. So it is difficult for you to "sponsor" an alien financially. The USCIS Form I-864 - Affidavit of Support is required for family-sponsored immigration. An affidavit of support is a guarantee to U.S. government that an immigrant will not become a public charge. SO you may need a a co-sponsor for her financial sponsor for Form I-864 if needed.
