I am also a lawyer and I cannot advise you about this since you are already represented by an attorney.  You should work with your attorney to resolve this situation.

H1 Visa

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
If an F-1 student like you is in legal status and keeps studying, he or she is allowed to continue staying in the U. S. while awaiting the H-1B. I am assuming that you are talking about an H-1B cap case in which the H-1B does not become effective until at least October 1st.  In the case that I just described, having an I-20 and studying until October allows the individual to stay. Otherwise the student would have to have some other basis like a post completion OPT that extends until the time that the H-1B petition is filed (that would allow the student to enter into a cap gap extension allowing employment and stay until September 30th if the H-1B petition is selected and either pending or approved by that date) or the beginning of February (that would allow the student to stay until September 30th under the same conditions but would not allow work).
