Hi,

I am currently on OPT, and I have applied for the H1B visa. My OPT was due for expiration on 04/17/2010 and I got it renewed via the Cap-Gap Extension and my school renewed it till 06/02/2010. I have received the receipt number from USCIS for the H1B Application. I am not sure what my status is post 06/02/2010. Is there anything I need to do through my school or my employer or myself? Could you please advise?

Thanks.
 
Cap gap extension: Under the new rule, the cap gap extension is a period in which an eligible F-1 student’s status is automatically extended to bridge the gap between the end of F-1 status and start of H-1B status. If the student is in a period of authorized post-completion OPT on or after the date the student becomes eligible for the extension, the student’s post-completion OPT is also automatically extended.

Cap gap OPT: A period of OPT that has been extended beyond the date on the F-1 student’s employment authorization document during an authorized cap gap extension.
