What happens when you don’t receive any decision before October 1st from USCIS? My H1 is selected in the lottery but there has been no response at all after it. I am on valid F1 btw

I didn’t get my response until end of November with no RFP just approval. No updates for 7 months! But it worked out as my opt was ending end of December!

Good luck OP, update is coming soon I hope!

Thank you! Did you travel out of the US before November/December? If yes, was it okay since your H1 was pending but you at least had a valid F1 (in which you can go out and come back)?

My lawyers didn’t seem to really understand my f1 status so they made a huge fuss about it and i was under the impression that I might’ve really risked something. With the process change I believe that’s something they handled for me. I didn’t do anything on my end

Oh no... I did not travel until this August! And even then I was so nervous... it went well tho... but you never know. So I would advice against it as OPT card is not enough and pending status is definitely not enough with this political climate.
