H-1 Layoff. How long do I have?

[goldi]

Hi - my company laid me off last week and have given me a month's time before they inform the INS.

My questions are:

1. How much time do I have, after that one month period, to leave the country?

2. I recently heard that the INS has become a little more flexible on that account. Is that true?

3. Any other suggestions/recommendations are welcome.

Thanks.
