想在新学期前转成H4。目前只有4月份的paystub,我可以用这个证明现在的H1b身份吗?
-Fine.
需要解释5月到8月的gap吗?
-Yes, you may explain that your school employment is 9 month-based as most schools do (the USCIS should know the US university/college system is nine-month contract).
还有就是,是不是把I-539交上去了,收到receipt就可以安心在美国等着了?
-Yes.
还是等待的这一段时间也要是under H1b?
-After you stop working, your H1 is invalid, but you are legal to stay during the change status pending.
或者干脆回国签证H4更保险。
-Up to you. This is safer and faster to get the H4 and if you find a new job, you can change the H4 to h1 immediately.
其实,已经在学校开始了绿卡申请了,I-140一批,priority date是08年1月,现在放弃是不是很可惜啊?
如果要保持这个PD, 是不是一定要找到一样的教职呢?
-Not need. Any job is OK to keep the PD.
非常感谢大家的解答。
