Could being expelled from school during my green card process cause a problem for my green card?
While going through my green card process, I was expelled from the school where I was maintaining F-1 status.
I’m worried this could cause a setback in my green card process, and I’d like to know what happens if I become out of status.
I had already filed I-485 before being expelled.
If you were expelled after filing I-485, since the point of losing F-1 status came after I-485, we consider your status to still be maintained for the time being. We hope your green card process continues without issue. If I-485 is ultimately denied, though, you could end up out of status.
