F2B back to F1 after interview

[Tvala 1]

8 august was our interview(F2B) . Everything was fine consul was very friendly he only asked to my mother when she married and devorced exactly. He also asked me what I'm going to do in USA. Our marriage document was expired and he told us that we must to take the new one and that's all. On the Pink paper also written the same(Marriage document). Today (After two weeks) we received letter that we jumped from F2B to F1. What this means we must wait aproximately extra 6 month and there will be the second interview or what? on the interview consul didn't mention anything about this.

Did you make a request for F2B retention (F1 Opt out)?

If you did not do this, and the Consular Officer found out that the petitioner was a citizen, he will upgrade your case from F2B to F1.

Which mean you will have to wait until F1 is current so you can get the visa, no need to attend the interview again, but if your medical exam is expired you have to do it again.

 

Some Consular officer may ask you to sign a request for F2B retention in the interview so you can keep the F2B status, then they can issue your visa.

 

You should read the letter again to see:

- Who send it? USCIS or NVC or Embassy?

- Did they say anything else regarding this?

 

You should contact the Embassy via phone call or email to ask them about this. If they ask you to sign a F2B retention, you should do it now or you will have to wait until F1 is current.

I remember that our lawyer did that F2B retention, but she didn’t gave us any document about that. If my lawyer find that document and we will send it, is there a chance to stay in this row again? 

She is in vaccation at this moment

As I understood Embassy sent us that letter on email.
