Hi,
I am currently in USA on H-1B visa. I am planning to attend full time graduate program in Fall semester and want to transfer my status from H-1B to F-1. I left my job this week and I am temporarily out of status. I consulted the international office at my university and they advised me to go to home country to get the F-1 visa stamped to avoid any problems. I am wondering if I can go to Vancouver, Canada embassy to get my F-1 stamped as that is easier than going to India. Do you see any issues with it? Please let me know if there are any potential complications. I really appreciate your help.
Also, can you indicate the process and timelines of getting Canada visitor visa and how long will I have to stay in Canada?
Regards,
Sam
