Options for a F1 CPT Visa Holder Marrying a Green Card Holder
A F1 student who is presently completing CPT training married a U.S. legal permanent resident. It will be three more years before she is eligible for naturalization. His F1 CPT status ends next year. How can he legally remain in the U.S. between the time his F1 status ends and the time his wife gains citizenship?
Re: Options for a F1 CPT Visa Holder Marrying a Green Card Holder
He should explore possible employment-related visas, such as a H1B visa. The H1B is a dual intent visa, meaning that his intent to become a U.S. resident won't affect his eligibility, as it would for a nonimmigrant visa.
