L1 to F1 from within US - processing time?
Hi,
I am currently on a L1 visa. Am looking at getting it transferred to
F1. Had a couple of queries:
- Since I would be applying for the change in status from within US,
how long does the transfer processing take?
- If the processing takes longer and my course start date arrives, can
I start my studies while still being on L1 visa status ?
- Since my studies would be full time, I would not be working in
parallel. How does that impact my L1 visa status?
Thanks in advance!
