What is the name of your state? Georgia (husband to be is in Florida)
I am currently 4mths into my 12mth OPT work authorization and post-graduate traineeship on an F1 visa, in Georgia. My American boyfriend is two years away from graduating from his Ph D in Florida. My visa runs out in June 05. We intend to get married before then so that we can be together in the States. After he graduates, we intend on moving to the UK.
If we get married during my authorized OPT time, does that invalidate the OPT?
How soon after the marriage will I be issued a new EAD card as an applicant for change of status?
Thanks in advance for your help.
