Changing of J1 Status to F1 Status
Hello,
My friend is an Au-Pair in USA and he would like to change his J1 Status Visa to a F1 Status Visa.
The college he would like to apply for begins in May and also begins in August. His J1 Status Visa expires in July.
I have heard that as soon as you get your F1 Status Visa, your J1 Status Visa expires. I also know that you can extend your stay for 1 extra month if you have a J1 Status visa which would then put my friend 2 weeks early till college begins in August.
We need some help and would like to know if anyone knows the best way to proceed.
Thank you.
