Holymoll Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 I am close to completing my 6 years on H1-B. I am planning to move to a Day 1 CPT college and then apply again for H1-B lottery for 2025. Do i have to be necessarily out of the country for 365 days even when i am picked in lottery and want to move back to H1-B status from CPT ? Quote Link to comment
JoeF Posted March 11 Report Share Posted March 11 (edited) You absolutely have to be outside the country for a year before a new H1 in the lottery can be filed. And day 1 cpt is a bad idea to begin with. It will cause problems with getting an H1 later on. Edited March 11 by JoeF Quote Link to comment
