I am currently on a H1 status, my 3 year term on H1 got completed on May 31 2003 and my current employer has applied for an extension in February 7th 2003, today I got a message from INS requesting additional information.

I have been admitted in USC for fall 2003 to pursue on my Masters. I would like to change my current H1 status to F1 status. The items that I need to send with my I539 form includes copy of my I94 and Visa, unfortunately my I94 carries a date which of May31st 2003.

I need to enrol by August 18th 2003. Can I send the current I94 and a copy of my expired Visa to INS for change of status? Would this cause a problem? If so what would be your suggestion for my current situation.

Awaiting your response.

Thanks
Sushil
