標題[問題] Opt-out of the conversion to F1
時間Mon May 6 13:58:27 2019
之前有借文發問母親轉公民是否可以繼續看F2B排期，
得到的答案是不行，只能改看F1並通知NVC
但是剛剛在研究如何通知NVC需要改排期的時候，
發現似乎是可以選擇opt-out的？

When I filed a petition for my relative I was a Lawful Permanent Resident
(green card holder). I recently became a U.S. citizen. How does this affect
my family members?
Effect on adult children: If you filed a petition for your unmarried adult
children (age 21 or older) when you were an LPR, NVC will change the visa
category from family second preference (F2B) to family first preference (F1).
However, under a federal law called the Child Status Protection Act (CSPA),
visa applicants can “opt out” of conversion to the F1 visa category and
remain an F2B visa applicant. This may be beneficial because sometimes the
waiting time for an F2B visa is shorter than the waiting time for an F1 visa.
When you naturalize and become a U.S. citizen, you should check the Visa
Bulletin to see if it would be helpful for your adult unmarried child to
remain in the F2B category. (Applicants keep the priority date of their F2B
petition when it converts to the F1 visa category.) Applicants who want to
opt-out of the F1 category must submit a request using these guidelines:
另外去搜尋CSPA內容如下，
https://reurl.cc/m704M
Unmarried Son or Daughter of LPR (F2B) Becomes Unmarried Son or Daughter of
U.S. Citizen (F1)
If your LPR parent filed a Form I-130 for you as an unmarried son or daughter
(second preference classification) and then your parent became a U.S.
citizen, you normally would automatically convert to a first preference
classification as the unmarried son or daughter of a U.S. citizen (F1).
However, you may choose to opt out of the automatic conversion and stay in
second preference classification (F2B) if the waiting time for the second
preference visa is shorter than the waiting time for the first preference
visa. You may check the Visa Bulletin to see if opting out of automatic
conversion may result in a shorter waiting time for you.
由於對這些移民法律流程不熟稔，想請問版上的專家我是否有理解錯誤？
