Hi,
I am in a very strange situation and not sure how to proceed. Hope some of you folks would be able to guide me
I recently got laid off from my job at say company ABC. I had been working as a full time employee on H1 past 3.5 years. Last working day was Sept 15 and this was part of a mass layoff.
I accepted an offer with another contract company XYZ and the plan was to join back into my previous employer ABC but this time as a contract employee.
Things were proceeding and they were about to file H1 when ABC comes back saying there has been a policy change and they cannot bring me in as a contract but instead is willing to rehire me back as a full time employee. :|
Now here is my situation:
1. i have been out of status since Sept 15 ( last paycheck) in hopes of landing my new H1 soon and joining as contract back into ABC
2. the contract firm XYZ is ok with continuing the H1 application ( but should I still go ahead with that ? )
3. Is it best to leave US and go back to India and try to get the H1 applied though consular notification ( cap exempt) through my original employer ABC without wasting any more time here ?
i should hopefully be getting the new offer with ABC in next few days. What is my best course of action ?
This is urgent, so appreciate any help.
