Unfortunately, if your H-1B (or other visa giving you work authorization in the United States) is expired, and if you have not already filed for an extension, then you are considered out of status and also cannot work. But more importantly, if this is the case, you are accruing illegal presence as well. Please contact me if you have any further questions or information you can provide me with, regarding your situation. Thank you.
