Want to switch job when OPT Ext decision is pending
Hi,
I applied for my OPT extension on 5/22/2014. Current OPT expiration date is 7/24/2014. (It already expired). I am working on the basis that
I applied for OPT on time and have the receipt that OPT has been applied. I think I can work for 180 days while the decision is pending.
Now I am facing big problem.I recently got a fulltime job.[/B][/B] I have to join there within two weeks, at the end of August, 2014. (Now doing a contractual job through consultancy)
Yesterday case of my OPT has changed to request for evidence. I haven't got the mail from USCIS which tells what document to send. But I think I have all the documents needed. Like for somebody I know who has also submitted the extra evidence USCIS requested paystub and W-4 and someone else its transcript for MS.
In this circumstances how can I switch job? Does anyone has any experience? Please share.
