Hello, I am seeking guidance on the distinctions and practical considerations between the F1B (family-based preference for unmarried sons and daughters of U.S. citizens), EB2 (employment-based second preference for professionals with advanced degrees or exceptional ability), and B1/B2 (temporary visitor visas for business or tourism) categories, particularly in the context of long-term family migration planning. I would like to better understand how these visa types differ in terms of eligibility requirements, processing timelines, and long-term implications for families aiming to reunite or establish residence in the United States. Specifically, how might a family evaluate whether a family-based petition (such as F1B) or an employment-based pathway (such as EB2) would be more strategic, and in what ways—if any—a temporary visa like B1/B2 could play a role while awaiting immigrant visa availability? I would greatly appreciate insights from those with experience or expertise in navigating these options.
