Out of Status -- Very Urgent!!!!

[ajkk]

Hi All,

One of my friend is in a bad situation, I am posting on behalf of him,

He is having H1B from Company A, he got a project at client place, company A even filed labor, all was going well , afterone yr or so.. his project with client got over on September 15th 2009. He was on bench since then, his recruiting guys tried hard marketing him and atlast after 3 mnths found a project lasr week and when the time has come for paper work, today,HR from client called and told him that his company A's HR responded them saying his H1 was cancelled on September 15th as soon as his project got over with his previous client. My friend was not intimated about this not even the recruiter and was in assumption that company is still supporting him ..He is in shock and helpless..

Now the question is its more than 90 days since Sept 15th, what is the current situation what can he do? (has 2 offers in hand and no h1)..wat are the options he left with? Anything can be done? Can he stay and apply a new H1 or transfer? Pleas advise, Gurus appreciate your quick response.

Thanks in Advance
AJ

----------------if his H1 was cancelled by employer A in September then why
A kept him on bench or tried to market him???? the info you posted is provided by client HR. you should talk to employer A directly.
My friend was not intimated about this not even the recruiter and was in assumption that company is still supporting him ..He is in shock and helpless..

Now the question is its more than 90 days since Sept 15th, what is the current situation what can he do?
----------------First he should confirm with employer A if his H1 has been cancelled or revoked or did employer A wrote letter to USCIS to revoke his H1 petition. If his H1 is revoked then he should go out of US immediately.

(has 2 offers in hand and no h1)..wat are the options he left with? Anything can be done?
Can he stay and apply a new H1 or transfer?
------------------If H1 is revoked by A then he cant file H1 transfer as he is not on valid H1 status.He should go out of US let new employer file H1 and once H1 gets approved he can come to US by getting Visa stamp.

Pleas advise, Gurus appreciate your quick response.
