I'm graduating senior(F1 visa) in this December. I'm waiting for my OPT card. Can I work in between that? Once I get my OPT can I apply for H1B on year 2016 or will I have to complete H1B? What other legal things I need to be aware of?
- proberts 11y agoYou can't start working until you have your OPT work card in hand. There are circumstances where someone who hasn't yet graduated can be sponsored in the H-1B lottery, but this essentially requires the student to have completed all requirements for the degree by the time of filing (in April).
