Can I get an F1 Visa without an J1 Waiver?
Hello, I just have a quick question.
I applied in Jan. last year (2006) for a J1-Waiver. The documents got
lost several times and I had to resend and fax them to the Waiver
office.
After several phone calls I found out that the officer who has my case
is sick and I can not expect to get a decision anytime soon.
My question is, can I still apply for an F1 student visa even I do not
have a J1 Waiver yet? I will get the waiver sooner or later but do
not want to wait much longer to continue my studies in the US.
Thank you
Mike
