Imp COS queries

[suguru]

Hello TxH1b,

Here's a situation:

Currently I'm in the US and working on L1B visa.
I got my H1 filed in 2008 from company B. They filed with COS and I did not know until I got my H1 approved with COS. My H1 was approved with COS on Oct 16 2008.
Due to the market condition, I wanted to work for my current L1B employer.
To remain on L1 as per suggetions, I travelled to India on Oct 31 2008 and came back on Nov 12 2008 with new I94 on L1B visa.
I know that for around 14 days I was Out of status of H1 and working illegally on L1B visa.

Considering my case, if the H1B employer decides to revoke my H1 now, then can I still continue to work on L1B till the date my L1 is valid ?

Also, if they revoke, can the L1B employer still be sent an RFE about my H1 out of status and illegal work on L1 ?

Please let me know.

Thank you.

You can work on L1 as long as it is valid. As far as the RFE goes, it could happen but the likelihood is less.

I was thinking is, these days L1 extensions are getting rejected.
If USCIS sends an RFE about my current H1 to my L1B employer, can the L1B employer take any legal action against me ?

Also, do you think it would be a wise decision to tell the L1B employer about my H1B now before they discover from USICS (if at all) ?

Why will uscis contact your L1 sponsor about your H1?

About 14 days of illegal work on L1B visa.

Put your concerns to rest for now. That will likely come up during your green card.
