去年8/31号h1b第一个3年到期,到期之前丢了工作。马上file了h1->f1 on 8/26. 9月20号新公司file了h1b transfer. 10月h1->f1批了。刚刚收到移民局h1b transfer rejection letter,原因是9月1号到9月20之间没有身份。。。。。。
律师说那段时间我是h1->f1 pedning status,是legal的。律师认为是个goverment error,能appeal
-Was the H1 transfer completelt denied or was it approved without I-94? If it was completely denied, your employer/lawyer may file I-290B Motion to Reopen/reconsideration, not appeal (appeal may take one year or more to get the result). If it was approved without I-94, you may just go outside US to get an H1 visa to activate the H1 status. Anyway, talk to the lawyer and not need to worry.
