8 老師， 下麵是我找到的：
1) 8CFR 214.2(h)(13)(i)(B) says:
(B) When an alien in an H classification has spent the maximum allowable period of stay in the United States, a new petition under sections 101(a)(15)(H) or (L) of the Act may not be approved unless that alien has resided and been physically present outside the United States, except for brief trips for business or pleasure, for the time limit imposed on the particular H classification.
Brief trips to the United States for business or pleasure during the required time abroad are not interruptive, but do not count towards fulfillment of the required time abroad.
A certain period of absence from the United States of H-2A and H-2B aliens can interrupt the accrual of time spent in such status against the 3-year limit set forth in 8 CFR 214.2(h)(13)(iv) .
The petitioner shall provide information about the alien's employment, place of residence, and the dates and purposes of any trips to the United States during the period that the alien was required to reside abroad.
看過以後我有兩個問題：
1. 我的H1B 2014 年9 月30 日到期，是不是說最早2015 年10月1日才能申請H1B (假設到時還有名額）？ 看目前的狀況，2015 年10月1日多半名額已經用光，因此最早的可能是2016年4月， 而且到時拿到H1B 的話， 2016 年10月1 日是最早能開始工作的日子？
2. ”for business or pleasure“ 具體怎麽解釋- 是說要用B1/B2 visa 嗎？ 用H4 visa 可行嗎？
多謝！
