Answer: Basically, Yes. However, we advise you to get another U.S. employer who’s ready to offer you a similar or even better H-1B position before you leave your first employer. Since you’ve already secured another H-1B extension, and your current employer has not withdrawn your I-140 petition, the next step is straightforward. First, ask your soon-to-be employer to restart the “green card” application process. The application process is quite lengthy but simple. Your future sponsoring employer needs to file a brand new PERM Labor Certification and Labor Condition Application (LCA). The employer must also file Form I-140 on your behalf. The process takes up to six months to prepare so the good news is that you’ll be able to reclaim/recapture/re-use your old PERM’s earlier priority date.

Answer: Don’t worry, as long as you’re certain of your marriage to your American wife, then there is nothing to worry about with your F-1 visa status. Indeed, the good news is that you can even start planning on the next good use for the money you’re going to save here!

Answer: This scenario appears absurd to us too.
Unless the State rules in Hawaii state so, it makes no legal sense that a foreign authority would have the jurisdiction and competence to void or in any other way invalidate a legally issued driver’s license from another state or nation.
Just seek a second opinion by asking to see her Supervisor about it. If you meet them and they are also saying the same thing, you could try a different DMV and hopefully get a better and more “reasonable” response. If for some reason you can’t approach another DMV at this time, then allow them to go ahead and then “invalidate” the Hungarian driver’s license. Most likely they will do this by cutting the edges of the license and by stamping “cancelled” across it but do not throw the Hungarian driver’s license away.
Getting a US driver’s license for the state you currently reside is of paramount importance for now for obvious reasons. If at some point in the future you are back in Hungary and need to use a Hungarian driver’s license, just show them the “invalidated” old license and apart from a few laughs that would get and the chance of instant popularity, there should be little or no trouble renewing or reissuing you a new one.

Answer: The USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services) does not differentiate cases based on the previous length of the marriage up to a certain point. To the same agency, any marriage that does not involve a child born or which lasts less than two years is classified as suspicious in the exact same way. The suspicion is cleared when the authenticity of the same marriage is proven. This is achieved 50% though the documentary evidence, while the other 50% covers oral testimonies of both partners during personal interviews that take place in the USCIS. Simply put, if the marriage is shorter than two years, the USCIS perceives any duration in the same manner.

Answer: Of course its possible to have your status changed to F-1 although you will have to wait up to six months for CIS to give a ruling on your application for COS. It’s advisable that you apply for your F-1 visa at your home country US consulate.
It’s not practical to consider applying for a green card yourself under either the “extraordinary ability” or “national interest waiver” standards. Its advisable to obtain your student visa first, then your employer will start the “ GC “ process while you pursue your MBA.
