Hi,
I had been working on L1 visa to company A till last month and my project got over. And i have a valid H1B petition(approved in 2007) from company B. So i applied for status change from L1 to H1B thru premium processing. And i got a query(RFE) for more documentation(client letter or project confirmation letter).And the last date for document submission is March 22nd 2009.
Till now i could not get the project.
Now the question is, from this site's forum i learned that i can't work until my petition is approved, so how do i apply for jobs to get the client letter and is client letter a must or my company letter(H1 petitioner, company B) is enough. and suppose if i don't provide client letter what will happen. Can i stay here in US after March 22nd(my I-94 is valid for next 6 months). If i go to India, can i directly attend the visa interview based on my H1(though i had applied for status change). Should i go to India before the time limit they gave. Kindly suggest what options i have.
Please Respond,I'd appreciate your early resonse
Cheers,
Jiljil
