F-1 to H1-B after filing of 140/485, please help! (Immigration Law)

Tue, 08 Jul 2003 12:16:00 GMT

Dear all, please look at my case below and help me, thanks.
My wife is a student, F-1 status, she just graduated and applied for OPT.
Recently she got her OPT EAD card. At the help of my employer, I filed
140/485/765 on her behalf and we received all the receipts for those
applications. Now she just finished a job interview, and got the job. My
question is: is she still able to apply for H1-B , after filing 140/485/765?
Her current status is F-1.

Thanks again for your time and help
