Some facts: I'm currently on 17-month OPT extension. It started from Dec 2008 and ends in May 2010. I got it through my old employer ABC where I was working full time. I got laid off 5 weeks back. Until now, I have been unemployed for around 75 days including the initial 12-month OPT.
I had an interview today with a good company XYZ, which is not e-verified. I feel 90% chances that I might get the job here. They are even ready to file for my H1B this year.
But, here comes the BIG problem. As per the rules, while on 17-month OPT, I can't work an employer who is not e-verified.
Can someone please please suggest what I should in this situation. I would be so grateful if you can provide me with some help. I feel sleepless knowing I cannot work, even if I get this job.
