Laid off, I have an approved i140 and an H1b
Hello,
I was recently laid off from work and I am on H1b. I have an approved i140 as well. What are my options if I am unable to find work in 60 days?

B2 visa is your backup if you dont find one. May I ask you have a EB1 using a PhD? which area?

to be honest you are legally not allowed to stay in US. so best is to hope and find a employer that can transfer your h1b. you cannot have gaps in h1b. payroll needs to run always while on h1b.
