My wife is on H1B and works for an Indian Consulting firm; she has been working with this firm for more than 2 years.
She is now pregnant (just 2 weeks) and I don't want her to travel at this point of time and this is what she mentioned to her employer when they have got a project which needs her to travel and the employer asked her to go on a long unpaid leave if she does not want to travel. (I think the employer is asking her to take a long leave because he cannot fire her because she is pregnant and cannot travel)
If she goes on a long leave now, she has to be on this leave for at least a year before she can travel and work. In this scenario what will happen to her H1B. If she gets any other Project locally after 3 to 4 months will she be able to transfer her H1B to the new employer.
Since her employer asked her to go on a long leave, can we ask him to generate a pay stub for zero dollars because legally she did not leave the company and is on leave?
I am eagerly waiting for the reply, I am not sure what to do at this point of time.
