Hi,
I had a H1B since feb 2004. On Sept 2006 I filed a I-539 to extend my status to B2 and it has been approved until April 2007. I want to leave to Spain for Xmas next week and come back the 1st week of January because I have been offered a job in the US.
My questions are:
Can I re-enter the country under the visa waiver program ( my country belongs to the program)
If so, can I then file for a new H1B and then go back to my country to pick up my visa?
Am I subject to the cap?
Thanks.
