Thanks for all the replies but I am still confused about the letter. Do i just write a letter stating I will be graduating in May 11 08 or do I need to write a letter stating I have finished the requirement. I am taking one class this semester and it is a requirement which will be done in may 8 2008.

And even if i do that will they approve that or not. Or do they need the diploma. If I dont get it this year then I have to apply next year under masters quota. However my opt will expire on may 12th 09. then I will probably join the same school i am in right now with different area of interest. So on that period between may 12th to oct 1, if i get approved ca i still work say under CPT.

Let me know. Also can an employer apply for GC right away without even filing for H1.

I dont know shit about immigration. Any help will be highly appreciated.

thank you
