There are two ways to apply for an F-1 visa extension: (1) transfer your I-20 to a full-time graduate or professional program or (2) apply for Optional Practical Training (OPT).
You can submit an application for an extension of stay by mail or you can file online using USCIS ELIS for an extension of stay before the expiration date on your Form I-94. (There are certain very limited circumstances under which USCIS will excuse a late submission.)
Can I stay in the U.S. while my Form I-539 is pending? Yes. Assuming you filed for an extension or change of status before your I-94 expiration date (before your current visa expires), youre generally allowed to remain in the U.S. for up to 240 days while your I-539 application is pending.
To remain in the United States after graduation, there are numerous possibilities for international students. F-1 students can maintain their status by enrolling in another academic program. This could be a graduate degree, a second bachelors degree, or even a vocational program.
A letter must be attached with the application stating the reason for the extension and the date until the extension is required. The letter can also include the list of all the supporting documents attached with the application justifying the request.
