回複：請問：太太H4九月底到期,什麽時候應該申請F1來保住身份?

Why doesn't she file H4 extension? If she wants to change her H4 to F1, she needs to file the F1 application before the H4 expires.

如果F1十月份得到批準，那麽從九月底到批準日之間的這段算什麽STATUS？
-算"status pending" and she is legally present during this period of time. By the way, she needs to register courses with full-time load to keep her f1 status valid after her F1 is approved. So, it may be too late to get the F1 status in Oct. She had better file the f1 application in August so that she can enter the school in the Fall semester. in Sept.
