Hello All,
Am not sure how many of you have already faced this weird situation.
I am one of those thousands of you in the community on OPT (F1 Visa) waiting for your company to file H1B next year. Considering the way the H1B took place this year, am a little scared at the moment. I have STEM extension and my OPT can go until March 23rd 2016.
My question is:
1. Just in case my H1B doesn't get picked up in the 2015 April lottery, I have to wait until 2016 to apply again. But my OPT period ends on March 23rd 2016.
This is about 7 to 8 days short of reaching April 1st. Since its just a week, will USCIS consider this? or do I have to join university again just for this 7 days?
Your answers will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
