12月16日寄出APPLICATION PACKAGE，之后不安的等待，元旦收到RECIEPT。今天上网查已 [b]APPROVED！！！ [b]我是自费的，LP全奖。 [b]我寄的材料很简单，只是基本材料，没有结婚证明，没有房产证明，更没有居住地证明。 [b]之前看到网上要居住地证明，我很慌张，交家里也办了一份寄来，作好了补充材料的准备。 [b]结果没用上。 [b]最后，我的银行证明一部分是国内的，一部分是提前一个月借了存入的，共提供9个月的学费 [b]生活费，且只提供银行的DEPOSIT VERIFICATION。没有什么几个月的流水账之类。 [b]我想是不是3月11日之前申请的都会较容易呢。 [b][b]能在学校开学前APPROVED，我是意想不到的。不过我问了学校的国际学生办公室，他们说只 [b]要我已交了申请就能读FULLTIME，还说INS一定会给我转身份，并说这是很自然的。 [b]感谢所有关心F2的网友，希望这消息对正在焦急等待的F2予鼓励。 [b][b]---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [b]----- [b]耳朵自己的理解和补充说明： [b]1。“不过我问了学校的国际学生办公室，他们说只要我已交了申请就能读FULLTIME，还说 [b]INS一定会给我转身份，并说这是很自然的。” [b]------这一点我在录取我的学校的网页上看到了专门说明(网页是今年1月份更新的)，只要 [b]在 INS已经递交了材料，在处于pending状态的时候就可以正式读书了。 [b][b]2。3.11号的规定 [b]这个规定是指已经以F2身份全时读书的学生必须在今年3.11号之前递交INS转身份申请，和我 [b]们正在申请秋季的呆在家里的F2毫无关系。 [b][b][b]我用的是我和老婆的联名帐户。 [b]现将我寄给INS的材料告诉各位： [b]1.
