H-1B Registration: How Does It Affect F-1 Students

Filing H-1B cap petitions for F-1 students is challenging if you are doing it for the first time.

Employers need to consider a number of factors, such as:

1. What is the H-1B pre-registration period and how to register? 
2. Is the F-1 OPT or STEM extension expiring before H-1B filing?
3. Is the applicant traveling after H-1B filing?
4. Is the degree suitable for the position? If No, what next?
5. Is it worth spending $1440 for Premium Processing?

F-1 students are often unsure of Do’s and Don’ts to maintain lawful status in the U.S. when the H-1B cap petition is pending. 

That’s why we are offering a “Free Webinar” providing ultimate knowledge to H-1B employers and foreign nationals on the challenges during F-1 Visa OPT to H-1B Cap filing. This webinar will address the procedures to properly submit H-1B registrations, how to successfully file F-1 to H-1B Change of Status petitions, and avoid break in employment due to cap-gap.

Ms. Ancy Varghese, U.S. Immigration Attorney with 13+ years of experience in practicing immigration law, will provide tips, practical suggestions and typical case scenarios for successfully filing an H-1B Cap petition for your F-1 interns.
