I crossed by land in my own car, activated PR and took a U-turn back to states. I understand you have I-20s but I am not sure you should cross on expired I-797. Sounds a bit risky but again I did it on H1's non expired I-797 so I am not the best judge about the F1 crossing, all I know is that it...

Firstly, You'd need your I797 for soft landing, so dont leave without it. - This is not true, when I crossed at peace Arch, they took address from me to send the PR card, I gave an address in Alberta (not even Ontario, being ONIP), they were fine with it as long as you have intention to...
