Immigration visa.

[eguestr8]

I live in US and I petitioned my mother who is in Europe. Two questions.
1. Once the I-130 is approved, how long does it take to get an immigrant visa?

2. Once the I-130 is approved, could she come to US as a tourist and submit an I-485 within US, or that is considered immigration fraud?

Thanks for your help.

1. That depends upon the category of application.
2. No, can't apply for tourist visa.
