[quote=Anonymous]Op I would prepare yourself for her to leave but not because someone is willing to sponser her for a student visa. It is an incredibly lengthy process to convert to a student visa. There are only specific classes that meet the requirements and they are very costly (20,000) and hard to get into. I believe some HF do sponsor au pairs for a student visa but this is generally after years when they want to keep the AP in the family but cannot extend them. I also know one HM who had been promising to sponsor her fantastic au pair - until she realized how much time it would take and how much it would cost. I would warn your AP that she can't rely on the HF to follow through because it can take 6 months - a year during covid times. In the meantime, start to think of a backup... Is there a pod, learning hub, nanny option? We found a great camp for our kids and it took away all of the stress of worrying about what our flaky AP was going to do. [/quote]
