I am US citizen. My daughter is in USA under F-1 visa; I-20 expires in August 2012.
She’s 27 years old, unmarried. I’ve applied for I-130 in October 2010; the case is in Initial Review phase.
Questions:
1/ what could I do to keep her legally here beyond August 2012?
2/ can she apply to study at a different university than she is in now?

Is she thinking about grad school? Can she find an employer to help her obtain a nonimmigrant work visa (H1-B) or possible an employment based immigrant visa? Whatever happens don't let her fall out of status and build up "unlawful presence" which could result in a bar to admission for 3 or 10 years.
