Hi,
I am a student with F1 Visa (Visa valid until Dec 2017) and currently working on OPT Stem Extension (valid until July 2017). My H1B was approved this year and will start from October. I am planning to go to Germany for 10 days in Sep(Sep 2nd to 12th) and coming back on OPT itself. My employer is telling me that If i go to Germany and come back on F1 Visa, there will be a problem with my H1B as they already transferred my Sevis to H1B. So, I can’t work until I go to India and get my H1B stamped. I don’t understand this. Is this True? or they just scaring me to keep me away from my Germany Trip. Please respond to this ASAP. Thanx in Advance.
