Subject: Immigration Issues about students returning from Nepal-
For those of you student who are returning from Nepal has to face immigration questions in the port of entry to USA. It is suggested to answer the questions related work during their stay in USA, AFTER TALKING TO THEIR ATTORNEY only, if you had worked using SS#. If you answered as "No, I didn't work, they will check using your SS#, and ultimately will make return you back to your home country. Recently 2 students send back to Nepal from Chicago airport. Moreover, it may be good idea not to go back home until you got H1 visa, if you had worked using your SS# in USA.
my quesiton is, if i had worked in ssn while i was in F1 status, now i am in h1 and plan to travel in nepal and get my new US entry visa stamped..., will they still ask me if i had worked in SS# and stop me in point of entry?
It is suggested not to travel until I get my H-1b? Is H1-b completely different than F1 in a sense, they wont check my f1 records? If they ask, what should i say since i am in H-1b now, and I only worked for a company which sponsored me.
Thanks for help.

If you have worked using SSN, you're at the same risk..It doesn't matter if you have H1 or F1..
You're at even more high risk than F1, because :
(a) First risk is, you might get visa denied for your H1 in Embassy and second:
(b) They might send you back from POE.
H1 is at more risk than F1.
Go Home after you get Green Card or Citizenship or take a Risk.

damn PK, you scared the sh*t out of me.
I renewed my Visa two years ago and the counsellor found me working on SSN and still got the visa ( lucky me) . After reentering I have never worked on ssn. Do you have any idea if I am still on risk if I go to Nepal in H1(assuming I wil get one lol) or that work history will be ignored since my visa was renewed ?

Your visa is renewed but your SSN is not renewed right ? You're still at risk....
