Adding priority to jQuery

My code looks like:

'click #foo': function(e, t) {
    $('#otherId').click();

    //further instructions
}

At this moment, 'further instructions' are made, and then 'otherId' is clicked. I need to click 'otherId' first of all, before #foo will make other instructions. I know that click() is working asynchronous but I am not able to work this out. Is there any (simple) way to add priority to $('otherId').click(); instruction?

You can make use of callbacks: 

function furtherInst(){
    // further instructions
}

now in your event bindings:

'click #foo': function(e, t) {
    $('#otherId').click();
},
'click #otherId': function() {
  // other instructions

  furtherInst(); // call it here at the end

}

I would write it like this 

'click #foo': function(e, t) {
    $('#otherId').click(function(){
        //further instructions
    });
    $('#otherId').trigger('click');
}

I don't know what framework do you are using, but you can try this:

'click #foo': function(e, t) {
    $('#otherId').click();
 },
 'click #otherId': function() {
      // further instructions
 }

When you trigger the click, then listen it and make the other instructions
