My wife is on H-1 now and she is going to study so her university will file an application for F-1 for her.
My question is what happens if she quits (i.e. her workplace notifies USCIS that she is not working anymore hence her H-1 is invalidated for this employer), while F-1 application has not been submitted yet (it takes ~2 weeks for the university to the application). I know that if the H-1 was invalidated AFTER the F-1 application was submitted, there is no problem assuming you do not leave the US. However, i am not sure what are the consequences of quitting the job before the F-1 application has been submitted. Any insights on that?
Thanks in advance,
Caesar
