:confused: hi, my parents are lpr in the us and been planning to apply for their citizenship sometime next year, now the problem is my petition is on F2b category and i have read that if they become a citizen of the u.s, my petition will be automatically change to F1 category that will result for much longer waiting period. Now the question is, is there any way that i can choose which category would i prefer? which of the two category can shorten my waiting period? please help me...:confused:

any help would be greatly appreciated...
 
please post your I-130 priority date.

as of march 2007 they are:

01MAY 2001 for F1
01 JUL 1997 for F2B

in general F1 has a shorter waiting time. however, there was a span of a few months last year where F2B was actually ahead of the F1 priority dates.
