I am currently on an F-1 visa practical training, working in the same lab (at a university) I did my PhD in. Since it is running out soon we have asked for a change of status to J-1 while in the USA. It is still pending.
I would like to go back to my home country for a visit in about a month, but I need to re-apply for the J-1 over there. Should I risk it? Are they going to give me trouble with this visa or is this a simple matter?
Will letters from my sponsor saying we are in the middle of a project help?
Will this affect future chances of getting an H-1? (my country has no residency requirement).
I had a child while legally in the USA, will that affect it?
Any advice is welcome…
