  • H4 not stamped and need F1

    I have a approved H4-Visa, but no stamped yet. I got an admit and need to apply for an F1 visa. Now, do i need to file I-539 for change of status or shall i fill DS-160 for F1-Visa. I am currently in India and waiting on my I-20 to arrive.

    Can you please help me understand what form exactly, do i need to fill?

    Regards

    Once you are outside US you dont have any US resident status as such so if you are in India you cannot file for Change of Status . I539 is filed by people who are currently in US and need to either extend their current status or change status to a different category. You would have to fill DS-160 and attend visa for F1.

    This is my opinion not legal advice.
