ks2017 Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 Hi All, I need some clarification. I submitted my change of status from H1 to F1 application to USCIS and it was received on 11th April 2017. My classes start on 17th Aug 2017. When should I quit my H1 job? - Say the approval comes more than 30 days before the start of classes, should I wait till 17th July and then quit the job? (I am asking this because I read that we should hold current visa status till up to 30 days before start of classes) - Or should I quit the job immediately even if the approval comes more than 30 days before start of class? - Does COS approval ever comes before 30 days of start of class? - Will my H1 status be invalid immediately after quitting job or it is out of status after 30/60 days? Please help asap. I have to work out my job end date with my employer urgently and hence need to be sure about when should I quit my job so that I am safe wrt to USCIS policies. Thanks!

Better to quit after getting approval. Link to comment
