Hi. I need help with this situation. Would really appreciate your suggestions
I am working with a company X. My current OPT expires on May 15th. My company X does not want to do H1. Another company Y is willing to sponsor my H1 (the start date of my H1 with company Y will be Oct 1).
1) Is it possible for me to file for an F1 extension as specified in this link : http://uscis.gov/lpBin/lpext.dll/in...plates&fn=document-frame.htm#slb-8cfrsec2142f [Section Sec. 214.2(f) - point (vi)]
2) If I can file for F1 extension, can I file for an OPT extension as well?
3) Is there any other way I can work with company X during the period between May 15 and October 1?
Please advise
