Currently, I am in practical training status. When is the best time to apply for H-1B?
After you go to work for a while and you get familiar with the environment, you will have an idea as to whether you want to stay or not. It is always better to apply as early as possible. There are two reasons for this. First, once you get your H-1B, it is much easier for you to change job. Second, due to the change of the law, you do not have to worry about the six-year limit for H-1B.
