I'm presently working as research associate in a University on H1b visa (active from May 1st 2008, changed from J1 to H1b). A profit company filed H1b for me and fortunately i got selected in the lottery this year. The attorney has filed my case as change of status (form I539). When she filed my profit H1b I was on J1 but now I'm on nonprofit H1b.
She mentioned to me that i can work on present H1b (University) until Oct 1 2008.
My queries are:
1) Does it means that from Oct 1st I'll lose my nonprofit H1b as she filed as Change of status or it will be still active up to expiration date?
2) I intend to work for both University (part time) and Profit employer even after Oct 1st as my Eb1 application is pending with University and I dont want to leave that.
Please guide me through this tricky situation as I don't want to leave my University employer until he finds a suitable alternative. I'm desperate to keep both H1bs.
Many Thanks in advance..
