I have just married my American boyfriend, and now that we have our marriage certificate, we are going through the green card process.

So here is my question. I am on an F-1 VISA and have 12 college credits. I am going to be busy with VISA procedures, etc. I would like to destroy my I-20 and switch my status to I-797C if possible. The international office at the college does not recommend destroying the I-20 until I receive my green card. But I can switch to I-797C and stay. I was told.

Personally, I would like to change my status before I submit my green card paperwork and continue to take classes at the college for 12 credits or less.

Is there any risk there ？

I would appreciate it if you have had a similar experience or have any information.

It's not so hard that I have to cut classes.

This kind of entanglement is Showa.

I'm annoyed by old people who want to blame BBA for everything.

You seem to be a little too nice to congratulate strangers, on the contrary, you seem to be troublesome to these people.

＃ I am sure you are right, 5.
It is too risky to lose the I-20 for marriage from a student visa.
This has been strictly enforced since before Trump, so if you got a student visa to go to school in the US, marrying in the middle of the school year and losing your status is like increasing the chance of being dropped on purpose.
I can't go into details because I don't want to identify you personally, but I strongly recommend that you keep your I-20 anyway because someone I know did this and got into real trouble.

↑ It's not common to get a green card from a student to an international marriage ？ Since when is it that tough ？ I have friends who got it after Trump, it's normal ？.
