How to stay till I get H1

I am here on L1 visa.

I might get an offer from another company and for that I need H1.

My concern is, between the time I resign from Here and I get H1, how can I stay in US ? The new company is ready to take me in any time.

The H1B quota is not available until 10/01/2005, so you cannot change to H1B until that date. If you quit your L1 job, then you need to leave the US and apply H1B visa from outside of US.

you should consider changing to an E2 visa while you wait for H1B visas to come back again in October.

Otherwise if you are canadian or mexican a TN visa might be ab option.
