    Default Re-Entry While Pending to Change of Status from H-1 to B2

    Hi,

    I'm currently on the pending status of Change of Status from H1 to B2 (been waiting for 4 months).
    And recently I got accepted from a graduate school with the spring of 2012 admission and am planning to re-entry from Mexico.
    Here are my situations:

    1. I was arrested for DUI (was dismissed the case) and still charged for the refusal for the breathalyzer.
    2. I have a relatives (who lives in US) who will sponsor financially for my education and have official documents to prove.
    3. One of my family member is currently overstayed in US.
    4. I have a collection from the credit card company.
    5. I have a valid passport with the receipt for the change of status case.

    When filing for the change of status, I gave an explanation to show my interest to visit my sister (with a valid student visa) and to study.
    If I leave the country while on the pending status, will I have a higher chance to get denied for f1 visa? Do any of you (and expertises) have similar situations?

    Thanks for your advice in advance.

    You applied to change status while in the U.S. from H1 to B2, but now plan to leave the country before that process is complete, apply for an F1 from your nation of origin, then reenter as a F1 student?
