Also, my I-20 is expiring on May 31 this year and most likely I won’t be done with my Ph.D. (I set my graduation for August). If I extend my I-20 through the school and SEVIS, will it invalidate my I-485 application (like in the case of using an I-20 to enter the country instead of using advanced parole)? I do have to have a valid I-20 to stay in school while my case is pending but I do not want to jeopardize my I-485 application either.
Thanks for your help!
