Here's my situation:I'm currently working in US by using OPT extension and my OPT extension is valid until 05/01/2014. My company will apply H1B for me on 04/01/2013 by premium process. Let's say my H1B will be approved by this summer.
1. I would like to leave US to my home country (China) this September (09/02/2013) and come back to US on 09/22/2013. Do I need to apply H1B visa stamp or F1 visa stamp in September when I'm in China?
2. If I apply H1B visa stamp in China, will there be any issue I should take into consideration?
3. If I apply H1B visa stamp in China, what is the earliest date I could come back into US?
4. Some of my Indian friends told me I may need to wait in US after 10/01/2013 (H1B effective date), then leave US. Some of them said I could leave US any time after my H1B approved, and come back to US by using H1B visa stamp after 09/20/2013. Which one is correct?
Thanks in advance for your ideas!
