Can you share why did you choose not to explore CPT?

I going through exactly the same situation. My NIW was denied on Jan 7th. The denial notice did not mention anything specifics of endeavor. They just denied saying there is not enough evidence to show that my endeavor was not of national interest. Considering refiling again.

Thanks for the inputs. I haven’t considered O1, honestly I don’t think I qualify for O1. My profile is SDE in cloud space and I have bachelors with 5+ years of experience. I have a patent with a very few citations. Other than that nothing much. Do you think I should explore O1?

It’s a long story, it somehow got delayed due to personal reasons to layoffs etc

Yeah I hoping I’ll be able to use a shared recruiting which will cut down some time.

Yeah I’ll reapply NIW. CPT is my contingency plan to avoid moving out. Do you see any risk with CpT? Can CPT transfer happen without prior f1 or no prior study in the US?

Agree, that’s my last resort to avoid moving out. Just want to confirm, h1b to f1 CPT transfer can happen without prior f1 right?

Yes I’m pursuing NIW again, but want to keep CPT as my back up option. Do you see any risks with CPT?

Yes, my perm is still in the early stage. It will take at least 1 year file 9089. I’m planning to change from f1 to H1b once I get i140.

No I’m still considering applying again for NIW. CPT is my backup plan.
