And about the life after college, my brother, for instance, was offered a good paying job right out of college (no experience whatsoever) that also offered him sponsorship for a work visa. Luckily, he hasn't had the need to go down that route, as we are both still going strong with our DACA renewals.
Hopefully you find the answer you need in these comments (opinions).

Your situation is very similar to mine. I also fell in love with an international student holding an F1... you are right, we can’t choose who we love. We’ve been engaged for 8 months, haven’t married because we wanted to see what would happen with DACA. Take it from personal experience, her ability to maintain an F1 requires a lot of hurdles, will be expensive, and her ability to work will be very limited. However, it’s not impossible and if she gets very lucky maybe she can transition to an H1b and eventually a green card. My fiancée and I started dating while doing our undergrad. Once we graduate she did OPT for a year and then after transitioned back to student status while doing our MBA’s. She was able to apply for CPT employment and interned with the same company she did her OPT. The organization tried HB1 sponsorship for her in following order. 1st year MBA - didn’t get picked in lottery 2nd year MBA - didn’t get picked in lottery OPT after MBA - picked in lottery, received OPT extension, Trump administration changed the rules for especialty occupation, received RFE, RFE evidence sent, H1B denied, organization hired more immigration lawyers and appealed, H1B denied again. What is worse is that the organization has multiple people under the same h1b category and they’ve never been denied before! Fast forward to now, she went back for an additional Masters degree to buy time, but our decision is moving out of the country. Luckily both our organizations allow us to work remotely and with mine I will open up my own branch. If you plan to leave, I’d suggest that you talk to your company and see if working remotely is an option. Trick is to turn this shitty situation in an opportunity! Best of luck! |

You get denied if BIA agrees to hear your case. * You appeal to Circuit Court. You need to provide evidence of the BIA's incorrect ruling based on precedents and regulations for Circuit Court to hear the case. You get denied if the Circuit Court agrees to hear your case. * You appeal to Supreme Court. You seriously think you will get to this point...? The executive and federal court systems do not just hear your case on frivolous arguments, you need to provide clear and convincing case for them to hear your appeal. Otherwise your appeal will be rejected out of hand. |
