    If you aren't self supporting and living on your own with a job that has sufficient income... you won't even be qualified to even try.

    And it will be expensive.. it will be time consuming... and she might even be an adult before she ever got approved. It can take upwards of 10-12 years in some cases depending on the nationality.

    There are more details not explained in your question and without this info, nobody can give you correct answer. However, your sister may be qualified under new laws, please discuss this issue with experienced immigration attorney.
