  • H1B and studies

    It is possible for a person to
    come to us in H1B visa, work there for
    one year, after that leave the job
    and take course in MS in
    the US university and not work.
    does the law permit a h1b visa person
    to continue his higher studies in
    US full time.

    In order to do that, you would have to transfer to F1 (student) visa.

    You get H1 to work here full time.

        You have to work as per your H1b requirements at all times. You can study Part time or full time (9 credits) in addition to work if you want to and can handle that.

        No option to stay on H1 without working and studying. You can do a COS to F1 if you want to go to school on F1.

        I am not a lawyer and you need to consult with one to validate any info posted on the forum and discuss your case specifics. H1b Question? Read the FAQ first.
