H4 to H1 and back to H4

[siriby]

Hi,

On Dec 2007 I came to USA on H4 (Company A) which is valid till oct 2009, my h1b got approved on sept 2008 and took the SSN, but i never worked on it as i was pregnant and delivered in July.
If i want to change my status back to H4 on my husbands H1B (Shifted to new Company B on Jan 2008), what is the procedure and do i need to inform the embassy that i am h1b and need to change my status back to H4.
Please help.

You can apply for H1-H4 COS. But for that you need to prove that you were in valid status all the time. Since you never worked and get paid on H1 status, you are out of status as of now. You need to consult a good attorney

Out of Status

You are out of status. The minute your H1B petition got approved, your status changed from H4 to H1B. When you are in H1B you need to be working and get paid.
