Hi,

I came to US with L1B Visa through Company A.
I have applied for my H1B Visa through Company B last year.
I got approval for Change of Status from L1B to H1B by end of August.
I travelled to india twice (Sept and Nov) using my L1B and returned back with my L1B Visa.

I joined Company B with my H1B Visa in Jan 2009.
Company B had applied for I-129 to apply for ammendment to get new I-94 due to my travel to India in Nov using L1B.

My I-129 got denied and still waiting from USICS to get the denial notice to know details.

What are my option left to me?
Do i have to go back to India?
Is there a way i can apply from US for new I-94 again?
Is my H1B petition got rejected too?
Should i have to go out of country to get visa stamping and come back again?

Please let me know what can be done from my side.
Please do help in responding to this queries.

Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Praveen

-------------you came on L1 visa and got I-94 based on L1 status.. if you wanted to work on H1 then you should have come on H1 status by getting H1 visa stamp and at POE they would have given you I-94 based on H1 status.

I joined Company B with my H1B Visa in Jan 2009.
-----------how you can join on H1B when your latest I-94 was based on L1 status??

Company B had applied for I-129 to apply for ammendment to get new I-94 due to my travel to India in Nov using L1B.

My I-129 got denied and still waiting from USICS to get the denial notice to know details.
---USCIS is correct.

-------------------YES, Get H1 visa and enter on H1 status. for more info talk to your lawyer.

Thanks for the updates. Company B has applied for I-129 for me in december and they told me that i can join at any time since they have applied for I-129.
That why i had applied for it.

Company may have applied L1 to H1 COS. you can join on H1 if Change of status from L1 to H1 gets approved and H1 based I-94 is attached with Change of status approval notice.
