Re: non-residant case

It is very important that you stay on top on this and try not to fall out of status. This could have potentially damning consequences later, especially if you are hired and plan to change status while in the US.

I would recommend trying to convince your present employer to put you on unpaid leave (so that you are not formally laid off until you are hired by the new company). Failing that, I would IMMEDIATELY file for change of status to B-1 B-2 using Premium Processing.

Remember, I do not have a full grasp of your case, so I am generalizing. Always consult with an attorney before making these decisions.

Pls let me know if I can be of further assistance.
