H1B will not be filed this year: Need to go to CPT after August, Need recommendations

[Ashu]

Hello
My consultant will not be filing H1B this year and my OPT Stem extension is valid till Nov 2014. I want to continue working at the same company. I am a contractor at a very good company in San Diego. I want to explore my options on how to remain in valid status till next October 2015. I am planning on going back on F1 and continue working on CPT till my H1B gets filed next year in April 2015.

1. When shall I go back on F1 and start working my CPT ? (After August 2014 or After Nov 2014)
2. If I go on F1 status in Aug 2014, can I work on OPT Stem extension or shall I work on CPT ? Will my CPT get approved or Will there be hurdles ?
3. Can I work until Nov 2014 on OPT Stem and then go on CPT form there on onwards ?
4. Can I work on OPT Stem extension while I am on F1 status or do i need to go on CPT ?
5. My F1 Visa expires on June 2014. Can I go on F1 status after that ?

Thanks
Ashu

Hello, I think I sail in the same boat you are sailing.
My OPT ends in June 2014 and I have to get enrolled in a school to be on valid status.
