viddu512 Posted August 4, 2020 Report Posted August 4, 2020 Dear members, if an employer files H1 for an F1 visa holder before graduation based on a foreign degree, if H1 gets rejected will the beneficiary remain on F1 visa to complete their degree or does he/she lose F1 status altogether and become illegal? If approved, he/she can continue to study to complete degree while on remaining on new H1 status, right? Will there be any issues if he/she discontinues study? Kindly advise. Thanks. Quote
Zodiac System Posted August 4, 2020 Report Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) To the best of my knowledge, a person can only be on ONE status at a time. You are currently on F1 status, which will continue if H1 gets rejected, and continue to complete the degree. If H1 is approved, he/she can continue to study to complete degree while remaining on new H1 status. Is this Master's Degree? Please go ahead and complete it as it is valuable. Lets hear what other experts say Edited August 4, 2020 by Zodiac System Quote
