(不好意思,8老师, 实在报歉, 还有问题)回复：回复：急问, OPT grace period转H1B的问题. 谢谢!

(1)可不可以先transfer I-20到一个新的program(比如Kaplan international MBA program) 或新的学校来达到留在美国等H1B的目的?

-Yes, technically. But the rpoblem is that your new I-20 start date will be later than your H1 start date due to the Fall Semester is in the Mid- or late Aug, and thus, your new I-20 may not solve your problem.

Thank you once again for your help, Teacher 8. I really appreciate it. I was told by Kaplan GMAT for International Students that they will be able to issue an I-20 that will start on August 6. So my questions are:

(1) If my H1B will start on a date later than that date, say August 15, would that solve the problem?

(2) And also it is technically possible to ask my employer or lawyer to set the H1B starting date on August 15? (The school starts around August 18th.)

(3) Finally, would the closeness between the starting date of a new I-20 and that of H1B cause any suspicion that would delay or prevent the approval of H1B?
