Indian national on H1B status (programmer) for last 3 years in USA.Worked for Company A on H1, last pay check issued May 3rd week 2002.Current employment letter issued by company in July 2nd week.Till date H1 not cancelled by company A.Company B filed for transfer of my H1 in September 1st week 2002.Currently working and receiving paychecks from company B from date of filing.INS sent a query 10days ago asking for paychecks from Company A till September 2nd week.
If company B answers query saying that paychecks are not available or if I claim that company A didn't give any pay but kept my employment alive, then what can be INS's response. A friend suggested that I may be considered out of status and will be asked to leave the country and get a new visa. What are the chances of this happening. Will I be denied H1 or will I be given new H1 and asked to leave the country for new stamping. Is Canada, Mexico an option if this happens. Do I have to leave the country immediately or will I have one to two months time.
Please advise. THANKING you in advance.
