Here is the scenario
J1 Holder/Au Pair willing to change to F1.
Her DS2019 expires on 9/30/2007.
Options:
1. Change the Visa before DS 2019 expiration date and cut the contract short and go to school for fall season starting August 26 2007.
2. Wait untill Spring Semester which starts in January 2008. There is at least 90 days gap though between DS expiration date and start of the school.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of these options? Does it matter if the school is college or university? Does she need an attorney or school takes care of everything? When should she apply?
You all's input allways appreciated.
Thanks,
