omahamavericks Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 Hello, I am currently on OPT and my H-1B got picked in FY18 lottery today. I have to travel to India in May 2017. I have OPT until Dec 2018 and valid F-1 stamping. Can I travel to India and come back iif my application is approved before my return ? Will there be a problem if my application is approved ? Or I can return before my application is approved. Link to comment

Your H-1 will be approved but you need to go out of the country and come back with a H-1 stamping 10 days before the start date. Link to comment
