回複：本周內部門解散，H1b Transfer緊急情況請教老師們！！！

我辦H1b Transfer到現單位剛補交了材料,還沒批下來,今天獲悉公司準備在本周內解散我們部門. 我的最後一張paycheck可能截至3月10號. 時間如此緊急的情況下,在維持身份上我有什麽選擇呢?

1. 如果我立刻開始找工作,假如順利,在一個月之內遞交新的H1B Transfer申請,身份上算不算有gap? 需要出境簽證嗎？ IT IS FINE IF YOU CAN FIND A NEW H-1B SPONSOR (NEW EMPLOYER) WITHIN A MONTH. MAKE SURE ON FORM I-129 PART 2, 2. MARK "a" "NEW EMPLOYEMENT" & 4. "c" EXTEND THE STAY ....." THIS WAY YOU DO NOT NEED TO GO OUTSIDE THE U.S. AND YOU CAN CONTINUE TO WORK AS H-1B. 

我知道如果當前的H1b批準,一個月gap是允許的. 可是我的情況是當前的H1B剛補充了材料，還在等待批準．要是提交一份新的申請，那豈不是在移民局同時申請兩份不同的工作，導致統統被拒掉麽？有沒有可能在提交新申請的時候通知移民局撤銷老的申請？填表上有這一項嗎？我已不指望現公司能留意到我的情況去主動撤銷我的申請，對於這個爛公司不敢抱任何希望．AS LONG AS YOUR CURRENT EMPLOYER DOES NOT NOTIFY CIS TO WITHDRAW ITS H-1B, YOU ARE FINE. YOU SHOULD GET CURRENT H-1B FILING RECEIPT IN ORDER TO PROVIDE IT TO NEW EMPLOYER. THEY NEED TO SUBMIT IT TO CIS WHEN THEY FILE H-1B TRANSFER PETITION FOR YOU.

2. 如果我轉H4，可以在離職一個月之內提交嗎？我很希望能有兩三周時間找找新工作．因為H4辦下來也要三到四個月，之後再找再辦H1B，實在不願意那麽長時間不工作．

TO BE SAFE, YOU SHOULD FILE CHANGE OF STATUS FROM H-1B TO H-4 NOW IF YOU ARE CERTAIN THAT YOU WILL LOSE THIS JOB. YOU CAN ALWAYS CHANGE BACK TO H-1B ONCE YOU FIND NEW EMPLOYER EVEN IF AT THE TIME YOUR H-4 APPLICATION IS STILL PENDING. YOU WILL HAVE A FILING RECEIPT TO PROVE THAT YOU ARE TRYING TO KEEP IN LEGAL STATUS. THIS WAY YOU ARE CERTAIN THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE ANY GAP IN BETWEEN.
