L1B Visa cooldown period on H4


Recommended Posts

Hi, my L1-B visa is about to expire and I can change my status to H4 (since my spouse has an H1-B).

My question is -

If I change my status to H4, will it start my cooldown period (while I continue to be in US on H4) 

OR

Will my cooldown period start after I leave the country?

 

Follow-up question - While serving cooldown period outside the country, can I intermittently travel to US on B1 or H4 visa? Or does the cooldown period warrant staying outside the country for 1 year continuously?
