Q.

From H1B to F1 and again from F1 to H1B

I came to USA in 2004 as F1 visa. I completed my MS and I got my H1B visa in 2007. I worked as H1B visa holder till September, 2009. After that I decided to join MBA program. My university issued CPT and now I am going to school and also work at a same time. So basically I worked as H1B visa holder for 2 years. The duration of my MBA would be 2 years. After 2 years, when I will complete my MBA, will I get back my “OLD” H1B or will I need to apply “NEW” H1B? (I assume I will find one company to sponsor my H1B).As a H1B visa holder, one can work in USA for 6 years. I already mentioned that I already worked in USA for 2 years with my H1B. After completing my MBA (after 2 years) when I will get back my H1B, what would be the duration of H1B? Will I be able to work with H1B for another 4 years?
