Immigratin for parents of a US citizen

No, not yet.

Your son must be 21 years old and be able to financially support you in the U.S. This can require a U.S. Tax return with a proven salary in excess of $20,000 depending upon whether your U.S. Citizen son has dependents at that time.

If you have any children under 21 years old, those children cannot become permanent residents through the petition filed by your son for you. Those children must wait outside the U.S. until a visa is available. That may take a long time.

There may be other disqualifications that can affect you and your spouse. This is unclear. You should schedule an appointment or teleconference with a very experienced immigration attorney.

This is general information and is not meant to create an attorney-client relationship.

In addition to information supplied in the previous response, note that if at the appropriate time your son's income is insufficient to meet the then-existing requirements, it may be possible for another U.S. Citizen or U.S Permanent Resident to serve as a joint sponsor and to use that person's income to satisfy the Affidavit of Support requirements.
