dpphd Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Hi All, I will be applying for COS from H4 to F1 in the next week. I got admitted for PhD program for Aug 2017 with full scholarship/tuition fee and am curious to know what is the current processing time for H4 to F1? My H4 is valid until May 2018. I would appreciate very much if someone can give information about it. Thanks, DP Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Usually they issue your COS up to one month before classes start. You could consider a F1 visa if you think there will be a delay. Keep your lines of communication open with the School DSO or other Authorized person. If your college is well known then no worries at all. Link to comment
dpphd Posted April 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 @pontevecchioThanks for the reply! Yes, i spoke to the school DSO. They informed me that it takes 9-12 months now. Is that true? Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted April 28, 2017 Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 Then go and return with a F1 visa up to 30 days before classes start. Link to comment
