I have a precarious(though may not be unique) situation and wanted opinion of others who may have been in similar situation.
I was with employer A on H1B, which is valid till Sept 2018 (I797 and stamped Visa) and due to certain circumstances had to join employer B, on a receipt (I know it’s not recommended, but situation was such), I joined employer B on Nov 27th 2017 with receipt (Employer A has paid me till Nov 26th 2017), as it turned out employer B (major MNC which filed the petition in premium) got an RFE and then a denial (Still waiting for denial reason as of today, 29th Dec 2017).
Now my question is, what options do I have at this juncture
1) Can employer B, file another petition and I can continue to work without a gap?
2) If I were to leverage the 60 day grace period, and find a new employer, would that begin from Nov 26th? (The last day of payment from employer A)
