Please confirm.
Thanks for reply to my earlier post.

If your H1 was filed as change of status. Your status changes to H1 automatically on Oct 1, if you are in the US at that time.

Entering US with valid F1 visa and H1 petition approved
Hello,
I will be graduating by mid-Nov' 09 and will be joining the company from Nov last week. My petition will be filed this week. Assuming that it will get approved by mid-Aug, I am planning to travel to my home country in Sept first week and return in Nov first week on F1 visa itself. My question is that will this be problematic at POE, since at that time I will be holding a valid F1 visa, however the system will show up that I also have a H1B petition approved? So it means I am entering with a dual purpose or something like that.
Please clarify.
Thanks in advance,
