What exactly is the F4 visa, and who does it cover?

The F4 is a family-based green card for brothers and sisters of U.S. citizens. It falls under the Fourth Preference category, which means annual caps apply and demand far outpaces supply. Only 65,000 F4 visas are issued each year, and that limited number is why the waits run so long.
