My OPT Cap-Gap i-20 expires on June 1, 2014. Employer telling me that my H-1 picked in the lottery but not providing i-797 for further extension

If you are selected for the H-1B lottery, your OPT is extended and you can begin working on the new project for your employer. By the same token, your employer should provide you with proof that you were selected for the H-1B lottery for you to have your I-20 updated by the DSO at your school. Your employer should be more cooperative in providing you a copy of the I-797 receipt.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
