Good day
My mum (a green card holder)petitioned for me to come over
I don’t really know much about it - her lawyer is doing everything, I got a physical letter last week from NVC, Out of curiosity I logged in with the details
My category is F2A, visa class- F22 , my priority date is 17 - Jan - 2019
So i wanted to know like when the whole process will be over and I’d be ready to go
I’m still in year one , just felt like knowing
I’ll appreciate your replies

Hi, at the current speed, it could be anywhere from 12 months to12 years.
let that sink in ...12 years? Yes.
- if your Mom ( petitioner ) becomes a citizen , your category changes from F2A to F1(petitioner MUST notify them of the change ) - this can move the speed up to less than 12 months .
- If you(beneficiary ) are under 18 years.
- If your Petitioner has citizenship from China or Mexico (this is just as an example), the priority dates are backed up, maybe up to 12 years.
if its okay , i'll share some tips with you ...
- be patient .
- Be Patient ( this was not a typo, i repeated it to establish the point )
-I would advise you to hold on with any marriage plan if you're still single (this is not nice to say : but F1 category works faster for single unmarried Beneficiaries and your Mom may likely upgrade you to F1 from your present 2A in a matter of time ). But love is all about Patience and sacrifice, so feel free to ignore this part.
- bE Patient
- learn skills , anything is useful even shooting skits, studying insects and animal lifestyle or learning plumbing, carpentry or welding...(you'll thank God for this - later when you arrive).

i'll advise you to look out for the monthly visa bulletin (https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/visa-law0/visa-bulletin/2021/visa-bulletin-for-june-2021.html) its a resource that shows you when your priority date is current.
good luck
