I am sorry if I misunderstood. As you probably know the processing times depend on the service center (Vermont being the fastest, and I hope that you're in that service area). In general 3 months is plenty of time for the K1 to get approved for UK citizens. So, I guess if you start as soon as...

You have tried to be detailed; however, the info is still unclear: Our current plan is for him to enter the US on the VWP. We will file the K-1 fiancé petition once he arrives so it can begin being processed. He will return to the UK at the end of the three months to wait out the rest of the...

This is not always true. The OP should tell us the type of visa he/she is currently holding (and the info regarding the I-94 and time frame regarding leaving the company) in order to determine whether his/her status is current.

A valid visa is required in order for you to enter the country (the fact that I-20 is valid for another 6 months does not matter) Getting a new visa - each case is different :( . I think providing a little bit more info about your case may help us understand your situation better.

Are they requiring this for their records or are they planning to include this as a package for the consulate office? Also what type of information is requested on the affidavit?

It is hard to imagine that any company will be willing to take a risk simply because they would have to provide your current status on the actual application to USCIS. They would not want to compromise their future cases by trying to provide jobs for an illegal person (there is a question on...

I am sorry to hear that. Talking to your DSO may help since they can look up the SEVIS system and try to re-assign you the valid classification (they would actually initial the process and get assigned a "ticket" number based on which your case would be worked on). You have to be very...

His tourist visa remains valid. However, it is up to the POE officer to decide what to do with the information. He may not have any problems; yet again he may have a lot. That’s why I suggested consulting an immigration lawyer. Keep in mind that telling the truth about marriage at the POE is...

You may want to contact an immigration lawyer. I am assuming that you will apply for his GC once you are married. If you get married and he tries to return to US using B visa or the H one for that matter he may be denied at POE (you will have to let the POE officer know that you are married...

Well you may want to go and speak with your school designated official, and if that does not bring a resolution to your problem I would schedule an infopass appointment.

F-1 students are not entitled to SSN, unless they are completing OPT and or authorized to accept a job. Please clarify on which basis you were asking for SSN.

His B visa is null because of his new status. He may try to use it but that may cause problems at POE. It would be better to go and get his passport stamped.

I am not sure as to what are you asking? You can check to see if the home residency applies to your country by doing some research on-line or making a phone call to an immigration lawyer. However, if you are asking because you are going through an AOS process than your post gets a totally new...

Chokolat had said it. It truly depends on the school especially whether the school is private or public. Some private schools even have full scholarships for international students. It's worth doing some research...

What is your current status?

I believe you can only hold one visa at the time. Filling for a new I-20 may null your H1 approval. I'd suggest consulting with a lawyer or your designated school official.

Yes, you do need to apply for a new visa either way (because of the status change)

OPT cannot be extended. She should ask the company to sponsor her for an H1 visa

Do you have a valid visa? OPT is not an entry permit. If you do not have a valid visa you will need to go and have your visa stamped. If you have applied for post-completion OPT (i.e. for OPT after graduation), it is not recommended that you travel outside the U.S. until you receive the...

If you have filed an OPT, your I-20 should have been updated to reflect the new end date (the end date is one year after the beginning date of the OPT). You may want to check with your designated school official in regards to this. Also if 90 have passed since you receipt date you may want to...
