After moving from H1B to H-4 status, how can I later return to H1B?
01 Feb 2016Answer
In most situations, it is necessary for an employer to file an H1B petition. This filing would request a change of status from H-4 to H1B, and would be cap exempt (assuming the prior H1B was cap subject and that you still have H1B time remaining.) This could be filed by the old employer or someone new. (01.Feb.2016)
