    According to the latest visa bulletin (May 2024), the Philippines is the only country where F1 is more advanced than F2B. Indonesia falls into “All chargeability areas.” You should notify NVC because if you do not, the consul will discover it during the interview and then the case of your son will be put in administrative process while they ask for DHS authorization on your behalf. It would be better to do that in advance (send an inquiry to NVC). However, wait until the priority date, Sep 2016, is current in the chart A, whether it is in F1 or F2B, to take action (Opt out of the conversion to F1 and remain an F2B visa applicant).

    What is the country of origin of your son? I am asking because the F2B category might be faster than F1 depending on the country. Anyway, you should notify the NVC that you are now U.S. citizen. He will convert to F1. However, he can opt out to F1 if F2B is more convenient. Please check the latest visa bulletin. Lastly, filing another petition won’t help at all. You don’t need to do it. A new petition will start from scratch and it will take almost 9 years.

    No. You don’t have to send the original affidavit of support by mail. You will find the following information in the interview letter:  If a financial sponsor submitted an I-864 Affidavit of Support form, you must give the consular officer a signed version. It can be a photocopy, but the signature cannot be typed or electronic. There is also a video in YouTube posted last week by the U.S. embassy in Bogotá where they talk about this topic.
