首先9月份回国签证起码得请半个月的假，假设公司愿意，万一被check了，即使后来签成功了那耽误这么久，公 ...

太有道理了！新入职就请那么久的假，manager肯定不开心了。谢谢解惑

H1B申请未批复前离开美国，H1B批下来的确需要回国申请H1B签证。

那么暂且不申请H1B，仍然用有效期内的F1回美国仍然以OPT EAD工作，把OPT用完再回国申请H1B签证，转为H1B身份。

这样会不会有问题？如果可行，会是很好的策略。

如果我没理解错的话，应该是不行，必须9月份去签

approved以后不去办理身份变更的里面是这么说的
"Some employers incorrectly believe that, by holding on to approval notices, they delay the H1B status change and related obligations for both themselves and these employees. In reality, however, failing to join the H1B employer on October 1st would be considered a status violation, and any work performed for the L-1 employer after this date would be deemed unauthorized employment."
针对想保留F1身份的，里面这么说的
"the employer needed to request a revocation of the H1B petition prior to the H1B October 1st start date. Further, the designated school official (DSO) must request that the student's status information in the SEVIS system be amended to restore the F-1 OPT status."

不知道唉，刚收到律师email说international travel between Feb. through Mar. is strongly discouraged.

不好意思，好像也不是完全没问题，貌似回来的早没问题，贴着三月底走会有问题， 这是律师给我的回复：

If you travel before April 1, we would not file with a request to change your status, because you would not be in the US as of the date of filing and would have no status to change.

If you travel after April 1, we could file with a request to change your status from F-1 to H-1B.  However, if you leave before the petition and request for change of status is approved, your petition would proceed but the request to change status would be abandoned by your departure.
