謝謝8老師。
J1是2017年8月27日到期,F1的開始時間是2017年8月27日。
移民局的信說F1的開始時間是2018年1月10日。
這樣的情況申訴的機率如何?
-Because the I-20 has been expired for a long time, I don't think you will win the case. Do you have any valid non-immigrant status currently? If no, I suggest you to go back to China to get the F-1 visa to come back for the Fall Semester of 2018. Otherwise, if you file I-209B for Motion to reopen or appeal and it fails, then your unlawful presence will be counted from the date when your F-1 case was denied. Thus, your unlawful presence will be > 6 months or one year, and you will be subjected to 3- or 10-year bar if you leave US. That will be very serious.
Because I do not know the details about your case here, you had better consult an immigrant lawyer. Talk to the lawyer the details about your case and the lawyer may give you correct suggestion.
非常感激你的幫助。
