I am Canadian on a TD visa.
My wife is non-Canadian (and non-American). She has been in the US on an F-1 visa. The F-1 visa is still valid (by date) until end of next year. The I-94 is "Duration of Stay". She got a TD visa a couple weeks ago at a US Consulate in Canada. On our re-entry into Canada, she was still going to school, so we used her existing I-94 to enter. Now, she is dropping out of school (effective the start of September)...
1) Is she allowed to stay in the US because she has a valid TD visa, or does she need to exit the US immediately and get a new I-94?
2) If she needs to get a new I-94... we have heard that dropping out of school doesn't give you the normal "grace period". Does she need to get out of the US before her international student office updates SEVIS or USCIS?
