Hello,

A relative of mine did Masters in Pharmacy in US and is doing a job on OPT through IT Consulting in a Health care project.

She filed her H1B April 2012 and after an RFE and response , got h1B denied news yesterday. Her OPT ends October end, Oct 2012

What are her options to stay in US ?

Thanks in advance

If she can find a new opportunity by Oct then she can reapply for another H1.

I am not sure if she can apply for visitor visa after being on OPT but she can look into that which will give her time to look for new job.

good luck to her
