I’m in my sophomore year and plan to pursue my Master’s in the U.S. However, my family’s original plan was to sponsor my EB-5 visa during my graduate studies, but with the end of the Duration of Status and the 4-year cap, we are not sure whether it is still a good option. With the grandfathering deadline approaching and the current limit on F-1s, should I apply now, even though I am still studying as an undergrad?
