Minir Posted June 10, 2019 Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 @Memon Same situation here.. Did your lawyer suggested anything please share? Quote Link to comment
gopalakrishnach Posted June 10, 2019 Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 I am not sure but you can stay either end of I94 or 60 days which ever comes first. I may be wrong. Yes another employer can file your H1B transfer. Quote Link to comment
AJBHON Posted June 10, 2019 Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 Hi, I was in a similar situation. I had to leave the country immediately as the lawyer suggested. There is a grace period of 7-10 days. But again that depends on if your I-94 is valid or not. If it is. Then you can stay for 60 days. You have few options: - Appeal or file a new petition with your exisiting employer - Request your existing employer to put you up in another country then US - Look for a new employer who can file. The good part is you would be under cap exempt (means no lottery) Quote Link to comment
