<p>Hi I'm a 21 year old Canadian Citizen living in California, US.
I came to California from Canada this February and I think my TD Visa expired when I turned 21(March was my birthday). I plan to go to a community college in Los Angeles this fall. What should I do to have guarantee to attend this fall? I've asked the counsellors of the school and they just tell me I need a valid visa. Is obtaining an F-1 visa possible in the US or would I have to go back to Canada to get one? Thank you.</p>
<p>You can only apply for an F-1 visa from an embassy abroad, so you’ll have to leave the US at some point. </p>
<p>Please take care of your current visa situation. If you overstay your visa for more than 180 days, you are inadmissible to the US for 3 years. If you overstay for more than a year, you make yourself inadmissible for 10 years. And if you accrue several immigration infractions (e.g. overstaying one visa, getting a new one, overstaying that one too), you may make yourself permanently inadmissible.</p>
<p>b@r!um thank you so much for giving me a clear reply. It has helped a lot. So I plan to visit Canada within the next month. Thanks again I really appreciate it.</p>
