Visa Pathways

U.S. Visa Pathways and SEVIS Transfers

We've supported hundreds of change of status cases and F-1 transfers across nearly every visa type. Here are the most common transitions we support.

Change of Status Options

For U.S. Visa Holders in the U.S. looking to avoid H-1B sponsorship or high fees, we help you switch to a F1 Visa. This allows you to enroll in a graduate program while qualifying for Day 1 CPT work authorization.

I'm on a J-1 Visa

If you’re in the U.S. on a J-1 visa, we guide you through changing to F-1 status before your DS-2019 expires. This ensures you can stay, continue your studies, and gain eligibility for paid work from the first day.
