This is for my Girlfriend.
She is a freshman in college.
Let's say she enters DV-2011 lottery. (She meets all the qualifications)
Two possibilities.
She ends up not winning the lottery. End of story.
She ends up winning the lottery.
Now let's say she gets a low Case Number. Then she will go ahead and apply for the Immigrant Visa.
Now if she gets a high Case Number, she is not going to apply.
I wanna know if she is putting her F1 status at risk just by winning the lottery(but not filing for an IV)?
And what about going home on summer breaks? Will that be risky if she had won the lottery?
Basically, should she take the risk of entering the lottery? The benefits are better Financial Aid, better job opportunities after graduating. The downside is risking her F1 status.
She is going to get a GC anyway, but there is quite some time before I become a citizen.
Thank you.
