Could this screw up my I-485 application. . .
Could I get a denial for this ???

I visited US 7 years ago on an F1 visa, but I changed schools, and my attorney didnt inform INS of the change. I was NOT declared to be out of status by an immigartion judge or by the INS itself.

Now 7 years later I am back in the US, and am filing for adjustment of status. Is it possible I could be denied because of 245(c) Adjustment of status rule::: that the individual should not have violated the terms of a nonimmigrant visa.

If so, how does the INS check that I was out of status.

Hope you can help

How can you become out of status if you changed schools?

People do it all the time. I have friends who have changed schools and they have their GC too. only thing is when you switch to another school you should inform your old school and get an endorsment on your I-20. I have never heard of anyone informing INS. Even if INS has to be informed it is the duty of the International Admissions at the school and not you.

Either I have understood your question wrong or you have not given the complete info.( no offence meant).

I changed schools and the International Student Office gave me a letter stating I was never out of status and maintained a full time student status while I was in thier school. Even otherwise, as long as you have valid I-20 and other supporting documents (just in case) you do not need to worry about it (even otherwise!). Just relax....

Thanks guys!
I feel a bit better now :)

Inspains:

I\'m not sure whether I informed my old school and got an endorsment on my I-20. I only remember giving some form to my attorney and him not doing anything with it. It was so long ago.

I didnt keep any of my documents (I-20 and other supporting documents). I figured that I was done with them. The only thing I have left of from that time is my old passport with the visa stamp and the old schools name.
 

Thanks again
