I am currently holding H1 Visa about 4 years and renewed it once a month ago.
I got an admission in the graduate school and plan to visit my Home Country to get F1 visa as Fall Semester begins in August.
Just wondering it will be fine for me getting F1 visa in my home country.
I received I-20 from my school.
I am checking required documents for interview at USA embassy from but < seems there are no needs to show any H1B related documents upon interviewing >
Will my case be okay? No trouble to get F1 Visa?
Shown below are required documents
