Hi,
My friend has an F1 stamp valid until May 2005 and OPT until April 2005. He got the DSO at his school to attest his I20 in Feb 2004. He left for India in a day after that and has been there since then. Also, he plans only to look for a job on the OPT and later go for H1 when he is back in the US.
My question:
1. Will he be allowed to enter the US on F1 visa/OPT now that 6 months have passed since the DSO attested his I20?
2. Has anybody tried to enter after 6 months absence on post completion OPT and faced deportation at the port of entry?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
