shanthi89 Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 I am on H1B approved till Dec 31 2020. My employment has ended on Aug 7th. I got admitted to school for Oct 2019 intake and I have applied for Change of Status on Sep 30. After Oct 6th( 60 day grace period rule) I am legal to stay in US until my COS gets approved. If i find an employer who can transfer my H1 after oct 6th, let me know whether I am eligible to work on receipt notice or do i need to wait until my H1 transfer gets approved. Quote Link to comment

You are legal to stay as you applied for COS and awaiting decision. You need to wait until H-1 is approved. But make sure to withdraw F-1 COS petition after new H-1 approval or else the latest approval will take effect. Quote Link to comment
