Hello Rajiv,
I am right now in F-1 status and my OPT expires on 5 july 2004. I have recently got a job (Mar 4) by which the H1 quota was over. so, I was unable to apply for H1. So I Have couple of questions w.r.t this situation :
1) If I apply for my H-1 in first week of april and my Visa gets approved on April 15 (Valid from october 1st). I can stay legally in US after 30 june (With out working, I mean to say by taking rest as my employer is ready to take me back into the job from OCT 1st) ?
2) I have got a PhD Admission in a school starting from aug 14, I can join in the school and stay there till Oct 1st and once my H1 starts I can join back in the job.
Thanx in Advance.
