Hi experts,

I am working in a copy on F1-OPT now. but this company wants me to work on J1 for5 months until i get h1b at the same company on Oct 1st. I cant go directly to H1 from OPT as H1b quota is reached.

Question is:

1. As the same company is sponsor for J1 and eventual H1, will it be easier to get J1 waiver?

2. Will entering to J1 even for few months and transfering to H1 will be a problem?

3. I know if i go to J1 even for couple months my GC through my spouse may get impacted as J1 is in conflict with GC or even H1?

Look forward hearning from you -t hanks
