Troubled Posted September 6, 2012 Report Share Posted September 6, 2012 Hi, I am currently on H1-B valid until October 2014 I was laid off by my current employer last week. My employer will be holding my H1-B for 1 month more. I am considering doing a COS to H4 but I eventually want to go back to H1. I am not sure if I can find an H1 sponsor withing 1 month. I have the following questions: 1) If I go to H4 status and later find an employer willing to sponsor my H1 can I start working immediately after the H1 is filed? Or do I have to wait till October 2013? 2) Is it easy to go from H4 to H1 ? ( I have a master's degree and 2 years work experience in USA) Thanks and Regards, Troubled Link to comment
