Durham, NC asked in Immigration Law for North Carolina

Q: I have a valid f1 visa but I just realized that on the visa application I forgot to indicate my other (EU) nationality.

I have both an Indian and an EU passport. I already have the student visa on my Indian passport but would like to relinquish my Indian nationality, which means that I’d have to get a new visa. However in my last us visa application form I found out that i didn’t indicate my EU nationality.

A: Check with you school and see if they can assist you. Otherwise, if you leave the U.S., you would have to get your new passport stamped before re-entering the U.S. In either case, for accuracy purposes, you should notify USCIS of the omitted information.
