As my F1 status got COMPLETED , i came to know that i need to apply for Re-Instatement for regaining my F1 status from USCIS.

Hi,

 

As i mentioned in my previous post  about my H1b Denial.

Until now ( its been 18 days) since the denial decision updated on USCIS website have not received my Denial Notice of My H1b case.

 

How can i file Motion to Reopen or Reconsider without Denial Notice.

Our Attorney called the USCIS , as usual they gave a Service Request Ticket Number and wait for 30 days ie., Nov 22,2013.

 

What are the options now for me?

 

I'm a F1 status Completed Student ,got an admission from an accredited University will file for F1 Reinstatement Next week.

How can i file my MTR if i receive Notice after November 7,2013.

 

 

Please guide me on this

You have 60 days grace period (from the date of H1B denial) to leave US

Then, with a new F1 visa you can enter US later for your program beginning in Jan 2014.

SEVP certified doesn't mean anything. Even TVU was SEVP certified.

 

What's important is if the school is ACCREDITED!

A bunch of non-accredited diploma mills always shout "we are SEVP certified", but keep the information that they are not accredited somewhere in the fine print.

Stay away from any school that is not accredited.

Thanks for the reply.

Can i apply for F1 Reinstatement from an accredited university which is starting from January,2014.

 

What are the chances of my approval as my F1 status got COMPLETED?

Can i apply for H1B next year while the F1 reinstatement pending?

Can i go to Canada for F1 stamping instead of India?

Consult an attorney dude.

You have already filed for H1, so if you apply for F1 how will you convince vo that you won't file for H1 again??
