If they get their green cards, his parents and his younger brother can come back but he is the only one that can't correct? I wish there was something that I could do to help, I would do ANYTHING. Right now, our best hope is to find him a U.S Citizen to marry, am I correct? He also is going to become a nurse in the Philippines, is there anyway he can come back through nursing? I know his parents can petition for him once they get their green cards but who knows how long that would tale. I appreciate your guys' help.

Something doesn't seem right. If they over-stayed their visa and left the country, they should have a 10 year ban. They should have been able to adjust in the country. By leaving they activated the 10 year ban. Are you sure they were here without authorization? I read about a family not too long ago that was here for 15 years with permission because of humanitarian grounds because one of their kids had leukemia or something without actually having a visa and they had to leave the country because their permission to stay was terminated before their greencard interview through one of their kids becoming a citizen. They then came back in a little less than a year with their green cards.
If what you say is true, I don't think the whole family can come back for at least 10 years. When his brother turns 21 (if ten years have passed since they left the country), then he can sponsor his parents but it will be another 15 years or so after that for your friend to get his green card through his brother. If he has a girlfriend still here and they get married, he MAY be able to come back with a I-601 wavier. Check out
