I have some questions regarding changing of status from F2 to E3 (AUS).
Assuming I hold an F2 visa with which I have entered the US, what are the mechanics to transition a E3 visa? Does form I-129 need to be filed since I am within the US, or can I just leave the US, get the E3 in a different country and re-enter the US using the newly-issued E3 without having to deal with I-129? Any advise on any general problems or technicalities that might be relevant to this change of status?
And one last question, what happens to the F2 assuming the change of status is successful, is it possible to switch back to the F2 after being on the E3?
