USA F1 visa renewal before expiry

11/18/2014 6:14:29 PM

According to the official FAQ on non-immigrant visas: Yes, one can apply early to renew, and yes it can be rejected inasmuch as it will be a new application. Below is the quote of the relevant part of the afore-mentioned page:

Q: I have a nonimmigrant visa that will expire soon and I would like to renew it. Do I need go through the whole visa application process again?

A: Yes, you will have to go through the whole visa application process each time you want to apply for a visa, even if your visa is still valid. There are some situations where a visa applicant may not need to be interviewed when renewing his/her visa. See the U.S. Embassy or Consulate website for more information.

Disclaimer: I am not an expert, I simply googled the information.
