    Can I use an unexpired H1B visa stamp to travel outside the US and re-enter if h1b status is revoked

    I was laid off but my H1B visa is valid until Nov / 2011. Assuming that my employer has revoked my visa, can I use it to re-enter the US? There is a debate about whether the officer in the POE has access to the system showing revoked visas. My understanding is that if the employer has not...

    H1B concurrent (part-time) to work from home

    I am currently on H1B Full-time, but I would also want to get a part-time H1B (concurrent) to work from home for this small startup company. They will pay me 10-20 hours per week. The company is very small but it does have an office, a lease-contract, legal papers, partners, etc. I am...

    Switching application process from employer-based GC to marriage-based GC. Is it easy and possible?

    I know it is easier to get a green card through marriage than it is through employer. Unfortunately for me it is much easier to find a job than a wife. So I would like to start the GC process through my employer. Question is: If later, let's say one year, I end up getting married, is it easy to...

    Two h1b jobs: One full-time and one part-time (concurrent). Lost the full-time one. Am I in status?

    Few people seem to know about the concurrent h1b option. It is not a transfer and you basically can have two separate and concurrent h1b visas and work for two different employers at the same time. Let's say I am in this situation: two h1b visas approved, one full-time for company A and one...

    Nobody knows: H1B revocation causes I-94 to become invalid and you are subject to ban or not?

    So it is reasonable to assume that one-month after job termination. My impression is that, *in practice*, unlawful presence starts only after i-94 expires. But in theory it is termination day or something very close to it.

    Can I re-enter the US with a revoked not-expired H1B visa?

    My job was terminated but I have no idea whether the USCIS has revoked my h1b status or not. My visa is still valid and unexpired. What are the chances (from 0-100%) that I will be denied at the Port of Entry if I try to enter with my H1B visa? Do they check for H1B status revocation in...

    Nobody knows: H1B revocation causes I-94 to become invalid and you are subject to ban or not?

    All lawyers are eager to say yes. The worse the situation the more they are in demand. But are there any serious lawyer out there that can answer this question with 100% certainty? Question is simple: "When does unlawful presence start counting toward the ban for a laid-off h1b worker?"...

    Unlawful status (out-of-status) X Unlawful presence (illegal)

    I now understand that overstay (concerning 3-year and 10-year ban) starts counting from whichever comes first of the situations below: 1) I-94 expires 2) USCIS gets to know that the alien is out of status and does something about it. So my understanding is that a H1B revoked will put me...

    May lose my job: H1B transfer as a SAFE NET

    That's a good point, but I am not doing this which I understand would be illegal. I know the owner of the other company, he likes me and appreciates my work. So basically he is saying: "You are free to join our company whenever you want in the future. We can wait until you are done with your...

    May lose my job: H1B transfer as a SAFE NET

    Because my company is not doing well, i think i might lose my job in the future. So here is my plan: - H1B transfer to another company that I know wants to hire me. No premium process. - I continue to work for my company, in other words, I don't move to the new company while my process is...
