    I'm an Au pair on J1 visa which suppoused to expire in January 2009. I applied to change my status to F1 and I got it approved. My school starts in January 2009. So, am I still on J1 till school starts or can I just quit beeing an Au Pair and stay in US on F1 and wait till school starts??
    thanks,
    Maja

    If you stop working under your J1, from my understanding of what you are saying, you will create a gap in which you are out of status. Talk to your academic advisor at your college about your options.
