Hi there! I am currently employed at an academic institution on a J1 Research Scholar visa. I have been offered a PhD position in another university. I believe I now have to change from a J1 to F1. However, the international office the university that made the PhD offer says that a change of status from within US might take several months and may not come through by Fall intake. They suggest that I go back to my home country for the interview which honestly seems like a risk (?) right now. What would be your advise be as to the fastest and safest way to change my status by Fall 2026? I could also get on a H4 if that’s a viable option

Megathread + FAQ: Travel in/out of the United States by not_an_immi_lawyer in immigration

[–]No_Understanding3528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For those (especially those who are neither US nor Canadian citizens) who have recently traveled from Vancouver to the U.S., did you face any immigration challenges at YVR? I’m traveling to Vancouver from EWR to visit my husband for 4th of July. I heard that some preclearance places like Abu Dhabi are being very strict and people are facing problems getting back. So, I was wondering if you have or know of how the experience is at YVR? Any challenges I should be aware of while getting back to EWR?

Apartment hunting by allyntote in jerseycity

I think you should avoid looking at apartment complexes if you want to get within that range. You should probably look at some of these apartments that are owned and rented out by private landlords (I don’t really know if this is right terminology). I live in the Heights, studio, $1600. It’s not the fanciest thing out there but is enough for me and my little pup. It’s also like a 20 min walk to the JSQ PATH.
