我想应该有人跟我有一样的疑问.

My parents filed in I-130 for me when they were LPR and I falled under F2B category back to that date.

After 5-6 years when my PD is about to be current, they got their citizenship.

Theoretically, i should become to F1 once they got their citizenship.

However, F2B date moves much more faster than F1 nowadays so I wonder if I can keep my status in F2B but not F1.


Or should I wait till my PD as F1 becomes current?
-Yes. The F2B is not valid any more due to your parent's citizenship change, and thus your parent (the sponsor) just needs to write a letter to USCIS to ask them to upgrade the I-130 from F2B to F1 category. Then, you just look at the cut-off date for F1 and if the priority date is current, you can file your I-485. No choice and that is the price you needs to pay due to your sponsor citizenship change.
