HellO All,
Iam Prakash and iam on F1 visa now. i have completed my first sememster in the university here. I want to convert my visa from f1 to h1b.
I heard that even I get my visa approved, I cannot work until after october 2005 according to INS rules. Is that true?
Please help..I really need the info urgently and that would be helpful.
Thank You
Prakash.

Yes , for new H1, you can only work in Yr 2006 quota, which starts only 1 Oct 2005 irrespective of your H1 approval date.
