Opt-h1

[egayathri]

Hi,

I am on my OPT which expires on June 4th 2004. Now I understand that there is a 60 day grace period. I graduated on May 3rd,2003. My OPT got approved only on June 5th. I had a period (approximately a month) between my graduation date and OPT start date. Now after my OPT expiration date, Do I still have 60 days or since I have already used a month, I have only 30 days.

I am leaving to India and assuming my H1B is valid is from Oct 1st, What is the earliest date I can enter US?

Thanks in advance.
