hi,
Quite complicated, but will appreciate any advice from any of you. Here it goes;
I am 20 and on H-4 right now,dependent to my dad(who is on H-1). We filed for GC in Oct-2001 ,and got our state level labor cleared in Feb 2003 (!!!!heights). THe problem now is that, I am turning 21 in few days and we still haven't got our federal cleared and it looks like I'll be kicked out of my any chances of having GC with my dad since i'll turn 21 and will no longer be considered a dependent. My dad's lawyer always kept us in dark and never told us about these situations or helped us in any way to find a way out. He said he talked to the senator,but of no help. I am worried at this point, as my fees will grow by 400% if i convert from H-4 to F-1.
Was wondering if I could get any advices in this matter..or if anyone xperienced such a situation. It'll be too late for me to do anything now,but would want to hear what could have been done
Thanks i advance,
