  • Filing H1B while L1 to H4 change of status is in progress

    Hi,

    I am in USA. I have worked here previously on L1B. My L1B is valid till December 2011. I Have recently applied for change of status to H4, it is in process of approval. Now I found an employer who is willing to sponsor me H1B, can my employer file for a new H1B when my L1B to H4 COS is in progress?

    Your quickest response will be much appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Yes, but you cannot join them before H1 gets approved with a new I-94.
    If COS to H4 gets approved after H1, your status will again change and then in H4 status you cannot work.
    This is my opinion and not legal advice.

      Thanks for the reply..
      If my H1 B gets approved before COS to H4 - is there a way to cancel my H4 COS application.

        Yes, send a letter requesting application withdrawal.
