omshiv Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 Immediately..and by law your employer needs to pay for the airfare back to your home country. Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 It does not mean you get laid off at 1O AM and need to be out of the country by 10.01 AM. It just means that you need to make arrangements to leave within a few days. Link to comment
