Q: my i-130 case not got approval yet ,if i applied to study master in US, will they give me the visa easily ?
A: If you're not already in the US, you can get an F1. If you're already in the US on legal status, you can study without it. An F1 visa requires an intention to leave the US once your studies are over. A pending 130 will make proving the necessary intent difficult. However, you can still get the F1.
A:
The fact that you are the beneficiary of a relative petition (FORM I-130) will not necessarily impact the request for the change of status to the F-1.
Moreover, the fact that you are requesting the F-1 status does not cause the FORM I-130 to be adjudicated out of the normal processing time.
Both processes are not related.
