What is the name of your state?SC

My daughter is here on an F1 visa but that expires in 18 months - can she then transfer to an E2 visa dependent even though she will be 23? Also - if that is not possible what requirements does she need to have to work here for a year after her visa has expired in a job related to her Major? My husband and I are here on E2 visas.

She will not be able to transfer to your E2 dependent visas, as those are only available to children who are under the age of 21. However, once she finishes her studies, she should be eligible for a one-year OPT (optional practical training) EAD (employment authorization document) which would allow her to stay in the US and work for an employer while that employer or another employer petitions for her H-1B status (assuming she is eligible). Please let me know if you have any additional questions or need further assistance.

My response:

Yeah, I have an "additional question" or two.

Do you know what the population of the United States will be in the year 2010 with all these god-damned foreigners procreating?

Do you ever get into traffic jams on the freeways?

Do you spend an inordinate amount of time waiting in line to get on the "good" rides at Disneyland?

Do you ever feel the pinch of overpopulation?

When are you going to stop helping foreigners?
