Firslty, I would like to give my great great thanks to all u guys around who have kindly and timely answered my questions. May God bless you guys and wish u will have a good luck in ur application.
Just yesterday, I talked with an officer in the international student office. I was a little surprised by his answers. He told me he called the local INS and got some info, which said I still can keep my F-1 status as long as I reinstate my F-1 status with a new I-20. Certainly, I have to follow all the regulations for an F1 student. Even though it sounds like a little "unreasonable" based on my understanding and the posts from this forum, I decided to follow his advices to apply for the renewal of my I-20. Based on the officer's opinions, I still can stand as an F1 student when my I-485 got denied. But for me, I still have some worry about whether my reinstatement as an F1 will affect my I-485 processing. If my I-20 renewal got denied, that's not a big deal. But if this renewal application could affect my immigration status, I would rather not do it. I'm sorry I will bother you guys again. Please give some comments on this and great thanks here. Have a nice day.
