Hello,
Two scenarios. If my wife overstay her F1/OPT (she still legal now but she will be out of status at the time of my N-400 application) what should enter as her immigration status in the N-400? She has been always legal here but I understand she will be no longer a non-immigrant visa F1 visa holder. She has an A#.
- Should I enter her A# and put non-immigrant status on the field that refers to her status? Or what should I put? What are the options to that field?
- If we decide to my wife to leave the country legally (she can do that up to two months after I filed my N-400 application but the her F1 expires a few days before. She has 2 months to leave legally the country):
- Should I enter her A# and put non-immigrant status on the field that refers to her status? Or what should I put?
There's also a possibility for her to overstay no more than 180 days to avoid re-entering problems. Is that true?
In both cases I do not think I should enter F1/opt as an immigration status. That will be not the case. If she does leave the country I could apply for her Green Card via consular process, what is actually faster. But I will be alway from her during my N-400 processing and her Green Card consular process.
Thank you so much for the input. I would appreciate a response.
