Question details
- I am on H1B VISA and was notified that my employment will end on January 20th. I am actively seeking new job opportunities. Can you please let me know what happens if I am still interviewing after 60 days and become out of status?
- Do I have any other options to change my VISA status before/after my employment is terminated and I fail to secure a job before the 60-day period is over?
- Does my VISA become invalid after the 60 days or can I still find a job and reactivate it if I get an offer after the 60-days?

- You file for B-1 B-2 and you can do it online. You do not go out of status. Do it within 60 days.
- No, it does not.
- Talk to your lawyers. I think applying for tourist status is probably a good strategy.
