your  dad has to notify nvc  that your marital status has changed. you don't qualify to file under the F1 as soon as you married you changed category from F1 to F3, with your case number you dad has to write to nvc and attach copy of your marriage certificate and copy of your child's birth certificate explaining the case to change your category, and about 5 more years or more of waiting, but your wife and child will immigrate with you

Your case will change from F1 to F3. The time already spent in F1 will carry over, so you aren't starting over completely.

 

Your father should notify NVC of your change in martial status so they can update their records. It would be fraud to try to get or use a visa that requires you to be unmarried while you are married. You must still meet the conditions of the visa as of the time you enter the country.

 

There's a case on here very recently of somebody who did exactly this by marrying a month before coming to the US. Now he's likely going to be deported, and everybody who obtained an immigration benefit because of him are likely to lose their statuses as well.

Yes, you are permitted to visit if you can get a tourist visa (or have one already). You need to show sufficient ties to return home (job, property, family, etc. that need you back home).
