I am graduating June2007 ( Undergraduate) but I have have a job offer now and the company is willing to sponser me for H1-B. Does anyone know if it possible to file for H1-B before I graduate?Because if I wait till I graduate,by that time quotas for H1-B will be all gone.I will be receiving my OPT only after my graduation. If possible I want to file for H1-B before may 2007.

thanks a lot for the help!!

By the way, my job starts from October1, 2007.

A company can file for a H1-B before you start your job. I went through a similar situation last year. I graduated in mid June 2006 and my start date was in August. However, all my requirements were completed by early May. The company filed for H1B in late June (under 20,000 quotas for advance degree).

To file for my H1B, among other things, I sent them a copy of my undergraduate degree and a letter stating that I have completed all my requirement from my graduate school (and I will graduate in June). So, for your case, maybe you can request for a letter from the registar's office stating that you have (will) completed all your requirements.

Hope this helps.

Well, in your case it seems " (under 20,000 quotas for advance degree),"you already had a bachlors degree and you were graduating for masters. But you were approved for advanced degree quotas, which means I can do the same, apply before graduating..
Hey, thanks a lot..

One more question, did u have OPT card when u apply for the H1-B?
