Is the company holding the H1B responsible for reimbursing travel expenses incurred to the homeland? Is there a statute of limitations for this? I was laid off in August and a petition to adjust status was denied. Is the company still legally entitled to reimburse me?
 
Why?

Any idea why the Adjustment was denied? Iam in the same boat as you. Can you give me the reasons why INS denied it?
 
Adjustment Denial

Apparently, there is no grace period for filing for adjustment. In my case I applied on the 10th day after my lay-off to adjust from H1 to H4. The actual reason given is that I applied for adjustment after the status (h1) expired.
 
No Title

Oh...bad luck dude..I was laid off on 31stDec. Iam planning to apply for H-1 to H-1 adjustment before jan 10th. Do you think I would be okay?My company told me they would not be informing the INS until 30 th of jan. I heard from a friend that he had a similiar problem converting to H-4 . I think the problem is if you are trying to convert to H-4. Nevertheless are you planning to get stamped in india?
