I filed I-130 for my unmarried son (above 18 yrs old) with a priority date in May 2014. I'm about to become a US citizen. When I look at the Visa bulletin (July, 2019), I noticed that, the final-action date for F1(US citizen) is 08MAR12; and F2B (Permanent Resident) is 01SEP13. It seems that, my son would get to the U.S faster if I stay a permanent resident rather than a citizen. 

 

My question are:

1. Is there any chance that the F1 category will pick up. Is it true that being a permanent resident would be more advantageous?

2. Can/Should I keep my permanent resident status for sponsoring? Can I file the I-864 and other paperwork now and not updating my citizenship status after my naturalization ceremony? 

 

Thank you very much!
