makes no difference if married or single, as a PR it will take years to petition your parents even longer if siblings. Much quicker to do it once you have citizenship once you have had your green card 3 or 5 years depending on how you received your card

If you are petitioned by an employer, it is five years to wait before going thru with citizenship. If petitioned by a spouse, then it is three years.

You must have US citizenship to petition for parents and siblings.
