So the mindset is that USCIS is stupid? As said before - judging by history in this forum it's generally a mistake to try that.

 

Still waiting to hear the timelines of all these "friends" who just happen to do the same thing from OP.

Well you are judging USCIS now. I just said lot of people do that. I have seen that among my friends. So there is no judging, just making a general comment.

Are you talking about 2 years rule? If yes, it is not. 

2 year rule, what is that? I was thinking when someone enters on a B and is looking to change Status a=to a F and has their entry noted with that intent.

I have seen a lot of people asking about if, the guy who was here for a year and could not afford the flight home but could afford to study comes to mind. But have not seen any successful COS's for a very long time.

No I’m not - please re read what I wrote, to spell it out, if people think that uscis will grant them COS when a consulate wouldn’t give them F1 then they must think uscis is stupid, but it’s not hence many denials.

how successful have your friends been by the way?

 

amazing how many people seem to suddenly change their mind, having been granted a visa based on their ties home that suddenly with no preconceived intent they can just decide to abandon everything for a few years while they study.....

That's always been what I thought. Wish I could manage to go somewhere else for a couple months and not worry about anything back at home at all. Must be nice hah.

Chill guys! We are in a short time window to open a motion. The intention of this post is gathering as much information as we could to fill out motion case. 

Anything can be possible to happen. 

Just to clarify the change of mind. There are people who were here in the US and apply for AOS while staying here. Why not they go back to their country and apply for K1? That's people's choice. 

 

Thanks,

You cannot compare a K1/AOS to a F1/AOS from B2. It is like comparing apples to oranges.

Depends on which factors you are referring to. Once again, this thread is seeking help not criticism.

Well, B2 to F1 has a high denial rate. It is hard because how long it takes and because you can only start an F1 30 days before the day classes start. The day classes start is set by the university and it is not movable. Also, moving to an F1, you are not allow to work or do anything for a long time, many months. If you get denied you can potentially end up with an overstay and a ban, which will make it harder to get an F1 outside of the US.

 

The AOS for spouses does not end up in an overstay, if done well, and spouses have waiver anyway. Plus, you get an EAD which allows people to work while waiting for the process to end. AOS rarely gets denied and if something goes wrong, you still have a good chance of fixing it within the US.

Advice was given very early on, he needs to go home and apply for F1 there.

What about the people who can't get a visitor visa? They don't get that option. There was US citizen  poster last week who is pregnant in the US and wanted her husband to get a visitor visa to be here for the birth. How fair is it to them?

 

As long as the option to AOS on a B2 is available it will be difficult for a lot of good people to be able to obtain a visitor visa because immigration officers are going to think they are going to eventually do the same.

Read the first reply, you have to be in status to adjust status. What would be the basis of the Motion?

You're wrong! Do your own research before asking people to read false information.
