JoeF Posted January 31, 2016 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 You can NOT just "join a university." Universities have application deadlines, and getting an I-20 can take several months. And joining a fake university would end your career in the US completely. Anything with middle vendors is a bad thing. If the amendment gets denied, you would be out of status. I suggest finding a better employer, either a direct job or EC at the most. Avoid middle layers. Link to comment
jairichi Posted January 31, 2016 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 You are out of status. Find a new employer and apply for cap exempt H1B petition. University is not a grocery shop where one can go any day to get entry. They have admission deadlines and specific intakes in a year. Link to comment
ivrs11 Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Anyway you are saying your project is completed and waiting for Amendment decision. It makes no sense to wait for amendment decision when your project is completed. Before it comes, mean time search for another project and file another amendment with new job. In that way you wont be in out of status. Link to comment

It is the employer's responsibility to find a project for their employees.The employer always has to pay the employee, so it is in the best interest of the employer to find a project for the employee. An employer who requires the employee to find a project is a fraud employer. Link to comment
kumar4ever Posted March 4, 2016 Report Share Posted March 4, 2016 @rajesh reddy: As far as I know, even if your H1 amendment petition is denied, your initial H1 validity will still hold good through Aug 2017. Can you please let us know what happened to your amendment ? Link to comment
