Dear All ,
I am doing my Master's in US. I was planning to graduate in May 2009 so i had applied for my OPT with a start date of June 1st. After a while I received my EAD card with the dates 6/1/09 to 5/31/10. My potential employer has applied for h1b and my case is pending. But now I have a problem with my graduation since I had not cleared one of the prerequisite, I cannot graduate in May 2009. My questions are
1) Is my Opt valid now since I will not be graduating?
2) Can I work with my EAD from June 1st even though I dint graduate?
3) If my H1b is approved, Can I work before Oct 1st ?
4) I can only graduate in Dec 2009 , so can I register as a student after my H1b is approved in order to complete my prerequisite ?
I am really confused Please help me with your wisdom.
