If you are under 31 years of age and have graduated for high school or are currently in school, you can apply for deferred action under DACA and get a work permit for 2 years that can be renewed.

If your F1 status is terminated by your school official, you will no longer have legal status in the US and immigration can deport you. Try to change status to a different category or enroll in school again before your terminated status is reported to immigration.

As you presently have H-1B status and are contemplating a move to a different employer who will undoubtedly sponsor you for a new H-1B, you can transfer to the new employer upon obtaining a receipt of the new H-1B filing. The difficulty that you may have is the same as everyone who takes advantage of this rule since you will have left the approved employment for new employment which is not yet approved. If the H-1B transfer petition is denied, you would be out of status. If your new employer sponsors your green card process, you should not have to worry about the period of time that you received an RFE on your L-1B petition. After all, U.S.C.I.S. did approve your initial H-1B petition.Due to the limitations of the Lawyers.com Forums, Alan Lee, Esq.'s (the "Firm") participation in responding to questions posted herein does not constitute legal advice, nor legal representation of the person or entity posting a question.
