Hi,

I am on H1 at present which will expire on July 15th, 2019. My company had filed for an extension in April. But I lost my job today because my company had to downsize all of a sudden. I did not have any prior notice. What are my options now? Will I be eligible now to transfer my H1 with another company? If yes, by when should the transfer be filed? What would be my status at present? If I don't find any job, that would file my H1 transfer, will I go out of status? In that case, by when should I leave the states?

Thanks,
DG
