Hi. Is there anybody who tried the adjustment of status directly from F-1 to Green Card WITHOUT OPT? If so, would you share your experience with me? How long did it take? As far as I know, I could not find an answer for this question on the internet and in this community. I am an international nursing student in US (will be an RN in two and half years). Here is the question: For me, OPT is not an option because I used it after I finished college (non-nursing major) long time ago. In the worst scenario, I will apply for GC from my home country after becoming RN. Thanks. Tim
