Right now I have H1 and my wife is in H4. We are staying in WI for the past 4 years(We pay tax in WI). This year my wife is planning to join UW M***aukee for her masters. She is planning to be in H4 for at-least 2 semesters for availing the in-state tuition fee and then move to F1 so that she get the OPT to work full time after her studies. But her university has a requirement to be in F1 for at-least one year to be eligible for OPT. So she may have to move to F1 even before completing 2 semesters as shw is planning to complete masters in 3 semesters. University's immigration team is saying once she move to F1 she needs to pay the international fee (more than double of in-state fee) as she is not going to be a resident any more. I somehow know that we can establish she as resident for the tax purpose (but dont know how).
My question how i can establish my wife as resident even after she moves to F1 so that we can still be eligible for in-state tuition fee.
