"In July 1920 his sister immigrates and she says she is going to her
brother in Detroit, Michigan but I did not find them in the 1920 Federal
Census."

My response:

The 1920 U.S. Census was taken in January, so his sister would not have been
in the U.S. at that time. There are several websites which show census
dates and census headings. Here are a few I have found useful:

For the U.S.:
