Hi, my H1b has been picked in lottery this year. I see my status as ‘case was recived’ in UCICS site. My stem opt has completed inn june 29 2018. I am in cap gap right now. So am I eligible to work after sept 30?

if I am not eligible to work will go out of status ? How many days can I live in US? Can I apply to any university for Masters again and get CPT and continue to work.

please let me know if I need to take appointment for detailed answer

 

thanks you

Applying to a reputable university is usually a meticulous, months-long process, not something done on a whim. University enrollment is primarily about studying, not working. 

As posted in numerous threads on this forum, if unable to maintain legal status in the US (H1 to work/F1 to study), it's best to exit the US upon expiration of legal status, and not use CPT, etc just as a frivolous attempt to live in the US. 

Of course anyone can seek legal advice through an appointment. Details should be on this site's home page.
