Hello,

I would like to request some aid with clarifying whether applying to the green card visa lottery could hurt my current F-1 visa. I am a doctoral student in Chicago, IL and so far I have always maintained my F-1 status without any violations. I consider applying this year to the visa lottery but I am concerned that such a step might complicate my current F-1 status (for example, that my F-1 visa may be cancelled upon the presumption that I am a potential immigrant). I would URGENTLY apprecaite your advice.

Thank you in advance beforehand!

Sincerely,

Chris
