H4 to H1 and back to H4

Hi

I entered US on H4 in 2008 & further extended to 6/12. In Sep’11, I applied for COS to H1 & was approved 7/12 (delayed by RFE). Due to delay in H1 approval, applied for H4 extension to maintain status. Got both H1 & H4 approvals shortly after. Sent a letter to USCIS to cancel my H4 (valid to 6/15) to keep only my H1 active.

Worked on H1 for few months and took time-off due to personal reasons with intention of getting back to work but couldn’t. It’s been 5 months I'm OoS. Now I'd like to convert to H4 with little to no issues including avoiding going out of country if possible. I didn't go out of US since 12/08. Any advice on what is the best approach to handle this?

Thank you very much for your kind response.

Hi,

Could you please let me know how did you handle H1B to H4 situation as I also want to transfer my H1B to H4 but don't have pay stubs.
