Hi,
I came to US on H4 status. My employer filed my H1b last year and it came without I94. I struggled to find a client project so that i can come on H1. My employer then filed my COS H4 to H1 and it got approved with a start date of June 9 2014. But till the time i got my H1B approved, the project start date was over and i couldn't join the client project for which my H1B was filed. My questions here are:
1. My employer says he will not pay me for some initial days of H1. Is that legal?
2. He is not sharing the petition with me. Is this legal?
3. Is my legal status in US H4 or H1?
4. Since i couldn't join the client project for which my H1b was filed and now i am looking for another project, my employer is asking a letter from me saying that i did not join the project. What would he do with the letter? Is he planning to revoke my h1b?
5. What options do i have now?
Please reply to my questions at the earliest possible.
Thanks,
Neha
