H1B Transfer - Travel

Question

I am quitting job at my current company and my last day will be on 07/03. Starting work with employer B on 07/08. I am planning to travel abroad from 06/27 to 07/07. Can that one day 07/05 will create any problem if I apply for GC later? Please confirm if I should be in or out of the country during this day?

Answer 1

You have a valid status on 07/05 by virtue of 06/13 which is start date of your authorized transfer to the new employer. However, If your old H-1B visa has expired, you will have problem boaring the airplane for flight back to US. You should make an appointment with an immigration lawyer to discuss this before you leave.
