  • apply for H1B while F2 COS is pending

    I was on H1B and on February 2017 I got laid off. Company told to revoke my H1B in 60 day period, but before that I applied for F2 in April 1st week. I got the receipt for F2 but COS approval is still pending. I have got a new job. SO my question is if I withdraw my F2 COS application, and apply for H1B since when my H1B will be effective – from my new job start date OR from day I applied for F1 COS (April)? If H1B will be effective from my new job start date then will I be considered out of status from April to new job start date as I have withdrawn F2 COS application? What are all possible risks in my case?
