Change of status H4 to F1- Impact on GC processing

[ritika_me]

Hi all

I am currently on an H4 visa and have been admitted for a masters program here in US. I am planning to change my status to F1.

My husband's I-140 is approved and we are waiting for the date to be current (which might be few years).

Our concern is - If I change my status from h4 to F1, would it impact our I-485 application. Basically, can I be added on my husband's I-485 application as a dependent even if my visa status at that point might be F1 in US.


Would appreciate your valuable comments.

Thanks
