H1B Missed 4 FY2006 - Plz Help

[h4user]

Hi

I am in US in H4 Visa now. I missed the H1B quota for this year (i.e FY 2006). If i apply for the next year (i.e FY2007) in April 2006 under premium processing, can i start working immediately after i receive my H1b papers or should if wait till Oct 2006?

Kindly Help Plz.
Thanks.

Regards,

I believe petition means, that employer has a job for you. It doesnt permit you to work without valid visa, ssn, i94. You may have to wait till oct 2006.
You can try permium for H1B FY 2006.
