Hi,
I'm currently in the US and my H1B Extension petition is being processed by the USCIS. However, I have an admit from a university in hand and want to convert to F1 to pursue higher studies. My plan is to go to India before that and come back on F1, by going through the Consulate interview for F1 and get stamped for the same.
My question here is, will I have to ask my current employer to withdraw the H1B extension petition (approved or not by the time I go to India) to be able to process my F1 visa through consulate interview?
Any information on this is greatly appreciated !
Thanks !
