After I was laid off from my H1B job, I filed an I-539 application to change to H-4 status. A few weeks later, I got a new job offer, and that company filed an H1B change of employer petition, which was approved. I would now like to withdraw my pending H-4 application. Is there an official form or format to withdraw that case?

There is no official form or format used to withdraw a pending I-539 application. When we need to withdraw a pending I-539 for a client, we typically draft a short, simple letter that says we wish to withdraw the application. In the letter, we include the applicant’s name and the receipt number, and we attach a copy of the receipt notice. We normally send the letter to the USCIS service center that issued the receipt notice. There normally is no need to provide a reason for the withdrawal in the letter. (22.Dec.2022)
