Hi all,
I have a strange situation. I am in H1 status. I was working for company A and then got a job offer from company B. B started my H1B transfer process and then then I quit company A on November 23st 2012. My joining date in new company was on December 3rd 2012. My H1B transfer was approved on November 29th 2012. So there was a week between my resignation in company A and joining in company B.
During the gap week of November 26th to November 30th, I was requested to do some pending works and knowledge transfer in company A as a contractor and I was paid hourly(40 hours for that week - 1099). Company A told me that this was legal.
Just wanted to double check in this forum, if this is legal.
Thanks in advance for your opinions..
