You can still make an appointment at an H&R Block office or start online. If owe taxes and missed the deadline, there’s good news and bad news. Bad news: You can’t file an extension at this point. More bad news: you will be charged failure-to-file and failure-to-pay penalties for missing the deadline.
Every year there are a huge number of H1B applications that do not get selected in the lottery process. If you happen to be part of this unlucky group, all is not lost and depending on your circumstances there may still be measures you can take to ensure can stay or work in the U.S.A.
If you were applying for a Change of Status from an H4 visa to an H1B visa and you were not successful in the lottery process, you do not have many options that will see you allowed to stay or work in America. You can apply to do a degree or postgraduate certificate and apply for a Change of Status to an F1 visa.
If you are not eligible for this extension and you did not receive your H1B visa, you don’t have too many options left. You can apply for another degree or postgraduate courses, you should do this for the right reasons as it is a big commitment, not just as a means to stay in the U.S.A.

If a delay in your first flight is the reason you’re missing your connection, don’t worry too much. Usually, most airlines will rebook you on the next flight, and that too for free. Although, you might have to fly on standby depending on seat availability. Some airlines, in fact, automatically rebook you. But don’t take that for granted.
This is always the first thing you need to do. Get in touch with your airline as soon as you miss, or even if you think you’re going to miss, your flight. If you’re not at the airport, find their local number from the website and give them a call. They might be able to rebook you on the next flight out before you reach the airport.
If you miss your flight and need a guaranteed seat on another trip, you can try to schedule a same-day change. Some airlines will need you to request the change before your original flight departs. Also, it must be on the same calendar day. Alaska Airlines charges $50 for same-day changes, while American and United charge $75.
If you can prove it was not your fault, some insurance companies will compensate you for some or all of your lost-flight charges. Read your policy’s fine print well. If applicable, do your best to get written confirmation that the incident that caused you to miss your flight was caused by factors beyond your control.
If you’re really, really late, say around six hours or more, you’re probably won’t be able to get a new ticket for free. You can, of course, contact the airline and try to wheedle a free rebooking. But odds are you’ll need to pay for a new seat.
If you don’t show up for your booked flight, you’ll be classified as a “no show,” which means the airline will cancel the rest of your itinerary, leaving you with few alternatives for refunds or rebooking.
Airlines will rebook you on the next available flight if you miss your connecting flight due to something that’s not your fault (flight delay or bad weather). However, if you miss your connecting flight due to your fault (fell asleep or missed the announcement), the airline might help you rebook but is under no obligation to do so.

If your application is successful, you can work until 1 October, at which point you will have to change employment in accordance with your application.
If you have completed a STEM degree (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), but your H1B lottery petition was not select, and you are coming towards the end of your OPT period, you may be eligible to apply for a further 24-month extension, giving you a total of thirty-six months extra time following the completion of your degree.
