I am on H4 and doing masters from a US institution. my masters will complete by the end of May 2011.can i apply for H1 (masters quota or other) in june ?? if i apply for a job at that time , then i will not be able to work until October (as is the policy). So how am i going to get h1 approved if i m not working (before october) when the h1 is filed? what do people do in this case?? Since i am on H4 i am not eligible to work on this status. the people on f1 have OPT which i do not have . Please advise me how to get through this situation. if i look for a job in October and apply for h1 in october , but by that time the quota finishes.
