L1 to H1 COS - Notice Period

[3drockz]

Hi,

 

Filled H1B in Apr 2013 & was approved. My new job at company B starts Oct 1 2013 & I'm currently on an L1 expiring Dec 2013

 

My company A agreement has an at-will contract and specifies no notice periods (so Im assuming I can quit w/o any notice) but I'm planning to give either a 15 or 30 day notice so I can give time for company A to find a replacement and get my KT.

 

 

After I put my notice:

- Can company A fire me when I'm in notice period?

 

- If they fire me, what will my immigration status be, between that date and Oct 1 2013 (will I have to leave the country)?

 

- Any other options to overcome this situation?

 

Thanks for any advise.

Two weeks notice period would be ideal. 

- Not really.
