H1B被layoff求内推

lz一周前7/27被Rivian layoff了，grace period 9/25到期
两年经验，第一份工作是用VueJS + NodeJS, 第二份工作是用Python写API + AWS，我刷题都是用的Java
求各种公司内推～

另外求问一个问题：公司的律所F家说我的grace period按照我的last day （7/27） 算，但是我有看其他帖子说按照sperapation date （10/7）算，有人按照separation date算后面做h1b transfer出问题的吗？

公司说会pay到10/07：the Company will provide you Notice Pay through continuation of your regular pay and benefits commencing your Last Day Worked and continuing through your Separation Date of October 7, 2022 (Notice Pay Period). Notice Pay will be paid in accordance with the Company’s regularly scheduled payroll periods and shall commence on the next regularly scheduled payroll date following your Last Day Worked.

公司又说: With respect to the timing, note that employees impacted by this reduction will continue to receive pay checks and are still listed as an employee in our system until 10/7/2022. On 10/7/22 employees notified on July 27th will be terminated.  We will withdraw any employment based work permit petitions filed by Rivian (e.g. H-1B, TN, etc.) 30 days after the date of termination (i.e. on or after 11/7/2022). We will not withdraw any EADs and we do not currently plan to withdraw any I-140 petitions.
Note that H-1B visa holders are eligible to a grace period of 60 days after employment ends with which to depart the US, change status or have another employment based petition submitted on their behalf. Note that they must have an I-94 valid for the 60 days or the grace period will end when the I-94 expires. Be advised that when employment ends is something to be discussed with the attorney when the employee has a consultation. However, Fragomen has advised that we should start counting the 60 days once the person is no longer providing services even if they remain on payroll. As such, employment ends on July 27, 2022 as you will no longer be providing services as of July 28, 2022.


多谢多谢！

只要发paycheck你就还算是employee…uscis以paycheck来认定你是不是employee….而且你们公司都说了listed as employee 到10月份…这都是典型的给visa holder 找工作拖时间的手段….

别慌，60 day period不是 hard deadline

见过60 day以后H1b transfer成功的例子。如果太担心可以file 一个转B2，只要这个pending，就可以合法呆美

到时候uscis用来计算你身份是否有效是看是否有paycheck来证明你在不在工作, 所以保险起见还是按最后一次paycheck的时间(pay period)

我的公司说会有regular pay到10/07，我在帖子里补充了他们的原话～

我没拿过分手费, 不知道在paycheck上会有注明没有, 如果跟regular paycheck一样那就没问题

明白了～

这个Fragomen的律师可能不懂吧，找个别的律师问问。一般来说只要还在挂payroll，h1b身份就还在，lz你这里应该是从最后一个paycheck开始算Grace period
