H1 visa stamping while out of status

[smartin]

Hi all,

I had my h1 issued in nov '09 and was laid off from the company in march '10. However, I was able to secure other position in the same company a month later. But now the company wants me to exit/re-enter the country (and get my visa stamped) before starting the new position.

Since I was technically out of status for the month of April (and don't have any paystubs for the same), will it b difficult to get my h1 visa stamped? Also, can I get my stamping done in Canada, or will I have to my home country?

Thanks for your help..

That depends on how strict the individual consul is.
