Hi,
I'm currently working under STEM OPT. My h1b is approved without change of status. My employer has filed my h1b under the old contract but after x months, my company has changed the contract with the client. Under the new contract, I will work with the same client and in the same project. My employer is not willing to file the amendment because the new contract expires earlier than the old contract. Since my h1b is approved under the old contract, my employer is suggesting me to go to the consulate and get it stamped or I should stay on STEM OPT until my approved h1b expires and they will apply for extension based on the new contract. I have the client letter from the old contract but it's 10 months old.
What should I do in this situation?
