Hey, I am on STEM OPT and my EAD expired recently. This is my last h1 attempt and I'm currently in CAP GAP extension and eligible to work until I receive a h1 rejection letter (I dint get picked in h1 lottery).

My understanding is that I have 60 days from my h1 rejection letter to leave the country. Is that correct? Or is it 60 days from EAD expiry?

    Check with lawyer/school dso.
    Cap-gap automatically renew your opt exp date to sept 30. I think it’s 60 days after sept 30.

    If you didn't get picked in lottery, I think it's 60 days from your EAD expiry date. Working until receiving rejection letter after EAD expires is in grey area in my opinion. You should consult an attorney

      Is Amazon moving you? Or you are looking outside of Amazon on your own?

      Yes the recruitment team helps us to look for other opportunities internally. I am interviewing with other teams.
