From F2B to F1 category, Philippines

Hi all,

My brother-in-law, unmarried and over 21, has a petition from his Mom (my mother-in-law) filed in 1999, when Mom was still a Permanent Resident, so it was filed under F2B category.

In 2004, Mom became a US citizen, so brother-in-law's petition was "upgraded" to F1 category (unmarried son/daughter of a US citizen).

However, for the Philippines, the F2B queue actually moves faster than F1.

My (perhaps a stupid) question: can brother-in-law file for AOS (he's on H1B right now) based on the visa bulletin for F2B? USCIS is processing priority dates of 1998 and earlier for F2B now, while F1 is at 1993 yet (Philippines).

Thanks for reading!
 
re:

how come this law office that I went to says that they can actually force it to the immigration court to bring back my two brothers from F1 back to F2B visa, your giving a response to an inquiry without a rational explanation, is it really possible to bring back a case back from F1 back to F2B visa?
 
Can you give an update

Hi this is very similar to my case right now. Can you give us an update on what happened. Did the NVC allow you to switch categories and adjust status?

Will appreciate your response.
