I am 27 years old and I was petitioned by my mother as I-130 Child Over 21 that was filed on May2001 and up to now we have not received approval from USCIS. I am here in the US since 1994 but something went wrong with the adjustment of status before.
Anyway, to make it short, my mother is now eligible to apply for US Citizenship anytime. I do not know if her becoming a US Citizen will be good for my petition.
We are from the Philippines and my current category on NVC is F2B and the current priority date is Jan1994 (Philippines) but according to the immigration officer when my father asked them a few months ago when he was interviewed for naturalization, if my mother (principal sponsor) becomes a USC, my petition can just be upgraded and she can just apply for my adjustment of status. how true is this?
My BIGGEST worry is if she becomes USC, my NVC category will move to F1 and the priority date for the Philippines is only Oct1991. So does it mean that if she becomes USC, my case will become worse because the waiting period will be longer.
Please help me if you have any idea about this.... I need your knowledge while I can still stop my mom from becoming a USC for my sake... Thank you so much....

So does it mean that if she becomes USC, my case will become worse because the waiting period will be longer. Youre basically correct. Your mom shouldnt file a citizenship & upgrade your petition to F1 at this point.

Her becoming a citizen wont effect the I-130, unless she upgrades the case. Apparently, there is no point to upgrade it, since the priority date for F1 is more than 2 years older than for F2B.

Thats not true! How can she apply for adjustment of your status if by upgrading your case you make your waiting period to be 2 years longer than it is now?

Only if she upgrades the case!

Like I said, she can become a citizen: that wont hurt your case.
Good luck!
