H4 to F1 COS pending for 6 months - New I120 from college

[tech4appa]

Filed for COS from H4 to F1 6 months back, but the status is still "Initial Review".
Now planning to go to India to get stamped.

Questions --

Requesting a new I120 from the university takes 15 working days.
If i request for a new I120 and before 15 days i get a decision from USCIS, what will happen?
Will my current process get suspended when a new I120 is generated?

Appreciate your valuable suggestion.

Thanks
Sara

If you leave in between your petition will be cancelled. What do you mean when you day planning to go to India to get stamped. So you will go to India and then again apply for F1 ( fill DS160/ app fees etc) and get it stamped ? Why not wait for COS to complete and then go for stamping

Sometimes COS takes longer time than expected. In my opinion, you should wait for some more time. It is not guaranteed that you will be approved your visa in India. Most of the long waited approvals are coming these days. just be patient.
