Can you please advise on my problem.
I had H1B valid from 2005 to 2008. In June 2006, i stopped working and
i delayed for few months before converting to H4. In the meantime, my company revoked my H1B in july/Aug 2006 and so i got RFE on H4. Then My lawyer advised me to go to India for filing H4 stamp which i did in Oct 2006.
Now i have job offer from a company and i wanted to apply H1B through them as i do not come under h1 quota. My questions are:
1. Will there be problem with my H1B approval, considering my H1 is revoked before i converted to H4?
2. If H1B is approved, will I get I94 attached at the bottom that indicates change of status?
3. If H1B is not approved, can i stay back in US with my valid H4 stamp in the passport
I appreciate your help.
Thanks.
