Hi. I wanted to ask you guys a question mabe you can help me with.
I came to the US for security reasons and apply for political asylum. My application is still pending since 1 year ago. They say there are only a limited number of spots per year and there are tons of petitions for asylum so I could be waiting for a long time.
I am applying for Internal medicine residency right now to match in 2005. If I were to be offered a working visa, specifically and H1 visa, is it possible for me to take it and file the petition to the INS and switch from asylum application to H1 visa?
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks
