koushikkolisetty Posted February 26, 2016 Report Share Posted February 26, 2016 Hi, I have been laid off from my company. My current h1b is valid until next month and extension was also filed. I am not sure if they are going revoke/cancel my h1b before my h1 expiry. At this point of time: How much time do I have to file a h1 transfer with another employer. is it OK if any other employer files h1 transfer even after my current employer revokes my h1b. Appreciate your help in advance. Thanks Link to comment
rahul412 Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 You are out of status from the day you were laid off, find another employer by tomorrow if you want to get into some legal status or file COS to B2. Link to comment
koushikkolisetty Posted March 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 Thanks for the reply Rahul.I have one more question here. I have approved h1 from another employer previously. When I contacted him, he told me that they can file h1 amendment in premium processing and I can only work if it gets approved. Is this true? Will it be a good option for me? Thanks in advance .

No, you need a new H1 from that employer not just amendment. Yes you cannot work until its approved. Link to comment
