I am currently in the US on an H-4 visa. I am pursuing a PhD in Economics. Today I received a Research Assistantship offer to begin in September. I don't have the time to apply for the change of status from H4 to F1 in the US.
How risky is it to apply for an F1 visa in Canada?
- can I be denied and on what grounds
- in case of denial, will I have any problems reentering the US on my H-4 visa (the stamp is valid until August 2003, I-94 is valid until June of 2004.)
-there is also a new law or a speculation about that if you apply for a visa in Canada or Mexico and are denied, you can no longer reenter the US, even if you have a valid visa. Is there any merit to this speculation, a new regulation supposedly passed in April 2002.
Sincerely,
Anastasia
