Initial one year OPT was from July 24 2017 to July 23 2018 which was extended (cap Gap) up to September 30 2018. Company for acquired and will be terminated on September 14. What are my options now? I also applied for stem extension from July 24 2018 to July 23 2020 and the card should arrive soon I think. Thanks!

Crossed a line with my boss
Withdraw H1B and use OPT to get a new job. Once your status is changed to H1B after Oct 1 with H1B approval, you cannot go back to OPT
That's a nice advice. Not sure how fast lawyer can withdraw the petition..
Withdraw can be filed and received within one week. Ask the employer to note the terminate date. As long as the end date is before Oct 1, the H1B won’t go active.
