  • Here on tourist visa but wants to change to F-1?

    Hello everyone,,
    I am actually the sponsor for a 21 year old that at one time was my exchange student from Czech. He arrived here on 1/16 on a tourist visa and the I-94 has an out date of July 15.
    He has applied to a community college here and I have filled out the affidavit of support. Everything is in place except the TOEFL and that will be taken on 2/23.
    So the school will issue an I-20 in March.
    I just want to make sure I have the procedures correct.
    We will send the I-20 and หมวกกันน็อค a completed I-539 along with the affidavit of support and $300 in to change the visa to F-1. Is that right?
    Now - I also need to know if this is a problem - his I-94 expires 7/15 but the first actual day of fall classes is 8/18. So is that 30 day rule a problem?
    We thought about starting at summer session, but that would only give less then a month for all this to be processed.
    Any help would be appreciated.
