hi , my name is vikrant
i had a delicate situation thats why i couldnt post my query on the forum
if you could help me that would be a big help

i was in USA studying for my masters from JAN 2013 to Dec 2013
But as i fell out of status i had to return to india without completing my master
due to stress and some medical issue i was not able to complete my studies
Now i have again applied to another college and got an admit over there.
I would have to go for another visa interview?
as on my visa the dates are from nov 2012 to nov 2017
but it has the sevis number n name of my earlier university
So do i need to go for another interview
and if so am i applicable for interview waiver Dropbox?
i appreciate your help

Change Status by Crossing Border

Hi,

I have been living in California, US on H4 for two years. I am going to start my Masters in August 2015. I got my F1 visa stamped in India in May. I could not enter on F1 before July, so I came back with my husband on H4. To change status I must re-enter US on F1. Can I cross border at Tijuana,Mexico and re-enter on F1?

Vikrant, your visa sticker can't be used for travel (or for anything, really). You need to apply for a new F-1 visa.

Mrs. Agarwal, you may travel through the San Ysidro - Tijuana border and return on your F-1 stamp. You may do so no earlier than 30 days prior to the I-20 start date.
