Friends,
I know this is not the right place to ask question about H1-B visa. But I know here I\'ll get almost 100% correct answer.

Situation: My friend who is on H1-B visa, got lay off from the client\'s place. Now his employer is not paying him as he is with new employer for only 2 months and got lay off. So how long one can stay in USA like this ? Is it illegal ? What are the options for him.

Your feedback will be appreciated.

Thanks.
 
No Title

I would say a month but there are cases INS may allow for 60days (very grey area) ... However, this must include a filing of new H1 ASAP...
