No. Immediate-relative categories for U.S. citizens do not wait for a family-preference visa number, while LPR-sponsored spouses/children can be subject to the F2A quota and visa-bulletin movement. That difference alone can change the overall timeline significantly. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask them in our next Lawfully office hours session! - Attorney Rashmi Bishnoi (All information shared here is for general educational purposes only.
