Do not file your H1B if you do not have job.
Nepal_sach22, have you seen anybody extending their OPT after H1B approval without change of Status? Or You are just bluffing. If you have seen somebody doing so let me know the detail as well.
If you have your H1B approved without change of Status, and you do not have job then you are double screwed. You cannot have your change of Status to H1B neither back to F1, if you do not have paystub.
I have my H1B approved but without change of Status and without I 94. I contacted my University for my OPT extension and they told me that your H1B is already approved so your F1 is already terminated. So I cannot have my OPT extended. Since I did not have any projects so these MOFO consultancies also have not run any paystubs. Now I cannot go back to F1 and cannot go for Change of Status to H1 either.
So, DO NOT FILE H1B WITHOUT JOB.
