Maayakobarima,

First congrats on getting H1B and graduation. However, the timing of ur graduation seems to be absolutely wrong. GoodLuck with getting a job.

Answer for your question is "absolutely not". I think we have talked about this topic in the past as well. Once your H1B is approved you have 60 days from starting your H1B to get a job, else your employer has to start your payroll or you will be out of status. Sorry to say this but "reality bites".

GoodLuck with everything bud.....
