Hi,
I got laid off while on H1B on 8/31/2010. Visa valid till end of Dec 2011.
Employer withdrew H1B and LCA on 9/23/10
Last paycheck (severance) for period ending 10/2/2010 was received
Got new job and employer is planning to apply for transfer immediately.
There will be a gap of 41 days between the jobs.
I have few questions about this
1. Will there be a problem in getting the visa transferred?
2. Do I have to apply for a new H1-B to avoid getting transfer approved? Will I have to go abroad to get my visa stamped.
I would appreciate if you would please help me out.
