what status will I have
Hallo everybody,
soon I will file for change of status (I-539) at the end of January, 30 days before my actual status expires (at the end of february). From the day I send this application, what status will I be in?
Still the actual status J1 until it expires?
Already the new status L2?
I need to know this, since I am planning to finish my internship on the J1 wich ends end of february.
Another question:
What will be, if my J1 status expires at the end of february, but I still haven't received approval for change of status. From what I know, I am not illegal while waiting for the approval. But what is my status in the meantime?
Thanks for any advise!!!
Merry Christmas to everyone here!
Ivonne

Yes, unless INS approves the change of status earlier (which is unlikely).
