I am currently on OPT till June 14 & after the 60 days grace period till Aug 14 i will be out of status for 46 days till OCT 1, 2006 to start my H1..
My F1 visa on my passport expires on Aug 14, 2006.
Can i enroll in school for Fall 2006 & then File for H1 on the side , so that i can stay in the country legally for 46 days till i start my H1 on october 1, 2006.
If that is possible, will i be questioned as to why i enrolled in school again when i go for my H1 stamping either to canada or mexico.
I hope there is some loop hole that i can take so that i don't have to go back to my country for 46 days. If i have to leave the country for 46 days then i will be off my project & i don't want to do so....if possible.
please help me........
