abhishekkumar Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 Hi, I Came to US in 2013 with my L1b visa valid upto 2016 . I got my H1b visa approved I-797 which says visa valid from Oct 1st 2014 till 2017. Question : 1) is there any grace period when I can switch to my H1b status? 2)My L1b will automatically be invalid from 30th September 2014? 3) Does I need to submit any docs to USCIS to change my status ?

jairichi Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 1. If it was approved as COS then you have 60 days to report to H1B employer. But, you have to stop working for L1B employer from Oct 1st. 2. Yes, if H1B was approved as COS. 3. If approved as COS then nothing. Link to comment
