    Default H1 transfer pending, prior H1 expired

    Hello Everybody! I'm new here and desperately needs advice.

    My prior H1B with company A expired on Dec 2006, but my H1 transfer with company B was filed on July of 2006. It's still pending and they're requesting additional evidence, my lawyer said I'm not out of status since my transfer was filed before my prevoius H1 expired. My question is, worst case scenario, my H1 transfer gets denied, will my stay here in the US be illegal?

    My wife is on H1b also, if my transfer gets denied, can I be on H4?

    Do you have any suggestions on what we should do, I don't want to have to go back to my country and leave my wife here in the US by herself.

    PLEASE HELP...

    Why can't your lawyer answer your questions? I don't know of a reason why you could not seek H4 status, but you can't work on an H4 visa.
