Joe123456 Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 My Employer A filed for H1B in April 2014 and I was working on CPT. I got RFE for Employee-employer relationship and they responded to it. The H1B is still pending (Premium Processing). Recently, My University X has terminated my SEVIS because of failure to maintain full course of study. Now I have transferred my terminated SEVIS to University Y and University Y is planning to reinstatement my SEVIS. My F1 Visa got expired on Nov, 2013. My I94 is valid till Nov 30,2014. Problems: 1. Which is the best way to regain legal student status? a) Request reinstatement to F-1 status OR Crossing over the Canadian or Mexican border to "refresh" their F-1 status.2. Does the SEVIS termination will affect my H1B process? 3. If H1B is approved, Can I go back to India for H1 Stamping while the F-1 Reinstatement is still processing? 4. What are the consequences of a denied Reinstatement Application? Link to comment
rahul412 Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Working in CPT... SEVIS terminated bcos of failure to maintain F1 status... You have lot of red flags in your immigration record. Moreover you cannot transfer without couple of days. You better contact an attorney ASAP. Link to comment

What are the consequences of a denied Reinstatement Application? You abused CPT. And this change to another university looks very fishy. It is unlikely that you will get an H1. Link to comment
