Hi,
I came to US in H4 visa and did a COS to F1 while doing my masters. Now I have completed my masters and working in OPT. I would like to go to India for a month’s vacation and need to go for visa stamping. What are the risks in going for stamping at this time? Any recent experiences of F1 visa stamping in OPT?
Thanks
Well, it is a very tricky situation to go for F1 interview now. The fundamental reason is that, you are no longer a student and also you were on H4 in the past. F1 visa is not a dual intent visa, unlike H4 is a dual intent visa. Now, you have been on H4 and now trying to get F1, so the intent of you as individual are very different. It can be very tricky. We have very few experiences by users on this.
