OPT CAP GAP PERIOD.

[radha1313]

HI,

MY OPT ENDED ON MAY 3 2011, AND IN THE GRACE PERIOD OF 2 MONTHS, MY COMPANY APPLIED FOR MY H-1 VISA.

THE LABOUR APPLICATION WAS SBMITTED ON JUNE 26 2011.

SO CAN I STILL WORK?

Extension of your OPT work authorization to September 30, 2011. This happens if your approved OPT end date (on your EAD card) is April 1st, 2011 or later. Hope this helps!
