I am a first-year Ph.D. student here in Michigan (I have been here for 3 months). I applied for the DV-2003 and wasn't lucky enough to win it. Now I want to apply for the DV-2004 again; but there's one question that's been making me think for a while. If I win the lottery and apply to adjust my status from F-1 to Permanent Residency, will I ever jeopardize my current nonimmigrant(student) status because I applied for the DV lottery and therefore showed immigrant intent? Thanx for your help.
