发帖数: 52 | 1 My wife's F1 OPT will expire at the end of this June. I heard that there
will be 2 month "grace period" that allows F1 students to depart US or
change status after the expiration of the F1 status. For certain reasons (a
little complicated and may not be necessary to be detailed here),I want to
file the change of status for her from F1 to H4 in that grace period. I am
holding H1b visa.
But my company lawyer told me that I should change my wife's status from F1
to H4 before the F1 expiration date (that is, by June) to avoid the risk of
denial of her petition if she is deemed to have been out of status.
Can you please advise your opinion?
Thanks a lot. |
