Hi everybody,
I would very much appreciate your input to help me resolve my tricky situation.
I am on a physician J1 and for various reasons I need to convert to an F1. I already have my I20 in hand. My question is: Can I convert from a physician J1 to an F1 without leaving the US by filing an I-539? or Do I have to leave US and file for the F1 from the US consulate in my home country or Canada?
My situation is an urgernt one, and I thank you in advance for your input.
