Help with student visa questions
funke replied to jujubea's topic in IHOG: International House of Grads
Hello Everyone. I have a question regarding the F! visa. I am in the process of applying for a F1 visa. i already have a B1/B2 visit and plan to travel to the US in July this year with my family on vacation. My programme is starting on 30 August, however already have tickets to the US for 12 July which is more than the 30 day rule of the F1. The question is can i obtain a F1 visa in my country (Nigeria), travel on the B1/B2 visa and then change my status to the F1 while still in the US? Or will I have to exit to US to activate the F1 visa staus? If I have to leave the US, will going somewhere near like Canada and then reentering the US work? or do I have to go back to my home country? Appreciate the help!
