A company cannot request payment for the H1. That's in the law.

I sold liquor to under age age and cop gave me a yellow ticket
JoeF replied to ranveer sing's topic in H1B : General
Nobody is going to believe this "just for replacement". No store owner hands over the cash register to some arbitrary person. You worked without authorization, most likely regularly. That of course comes back to bite you. Seek the help of an immigration lawyer. -
Bring family to USA. They already have green card
JoeF replied to patas's topic in Application Process
If they stayed abroad for more than a year their GCs are invalid and can not be used. You would have to file for new GCs for them, form I-130 with Consular Processing. -
No issue. Your spouse's H4 doesn't depend on an employer, it depends on your H1.

You would have to live with the child abroad for a year before the child could get a dependent visa. See https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/Intercountry-Adoption/Adoption-Process/before-you-adopt/adoption-by-non-us-citizens-living-in-us.html

You absolutely have to be outside the country for a year before a new H1 in the lottery can be filed. And day 1 cpt is a bad idea to begin with. It will cause problems with getting an H1 later on.

Can there be an RFE? H1 Transfer after joining new company for 1 month.

You always need to get paid at least the salary listed on the LCA. And there is no "bench". That term is only used by shady consulting companies who don't pay the required salary. -
For these things you should schedule a 1-on-1 appointment with an immigration lawyer. There is a "Contact Us" button at the top. Nobody can give specific advice on a forum, forums are only for general discussions.

That's working illegally. On F1 a person can not work in some liqueur store. Your friend needs to discuss this issue with a good immigration lawyer.

She can't work on H4. She would have to change to an F1 to be able to work on campus.

Severance pay is at the employer's discretion. You are not entitled to it. And employment in the US is "at will", which means you can be laid off at any time, without warning. There are only a few exceptions, like discrimination.
-
The same as for any other denial. You would have to go abroad and get a visitor from abroad.
-
As soon as you report to the company you have to get paid. If they don't pay you file a complaint with DOL on form WH4, and find another employer.
-
H1 revocation is irrelevant for you. The old employer was required by law to inform USCIS that you no longer work there. It has no effect on doing an H1 transfer.

Work Remotely from India during F1 opt
JoeF replied to Srivats Srinivas Ramanujam's topic in Student Visas
You are by definition not in any status if you are outside the country. You can work remotely from your home country. -
A visa is an entry document. It has nothing to do with a status change. You file form I-539 to change status to B2.

Working On Two Jobs while on H1B (one in Canada one in the US)
JoeF replied to Nitish R's topic in H1B : General
When she is outside the US she is by definition not on H1. If her Canadian status allows her to work for a US company is something a Canadian immigration lawyer would have to answer. US laws don't apply in Canada.
