Change of Status (H4 to H1) Denied

[nsspriya]

Hi,

 

My H1B was filed by an employer in US when I was in India, 
I moved to US on June 8th 2014 on H4 visa 
H1B petition got approved as on Oct 1st 2014(didn't receive I-94), My employer filed for COS with in house project , which got denied.

My question is what are my options now, if I wish to work in US?

Can I get my H1B transferred with some other employer and ask them to file for H1B + COS and work on their payroll? 
Is H1B transferred even possible, since I don't have pay stubs?
Or should I travel back to India and get visa stamped and travel back to US on H1B?
Or should I wait for my current employer to file for COS again with a valid project?


Need Help

Thanks & Regards
Priya

"in-house project" is a known code-word for "on bench." That results in a denial.

If the "in-house project" is legitimate, the employer would have a business plan for it, including sales forecasts, sales brochures, etc.

Reason for denial? So, your employer filed a COS without a valid project?

 

An employer can file a cap exempt H1B petition and after approval you can start working for that employer. Pay stubs are not required.
