Can you work on H-4 Visa?
Not without an employment authorization which comes only at a certain level of maturity of your spouse's green card.
If I were to file for F-1 but my H-4 was going to expire would I have to file for an H-4 extension?
No. So if within the life of your H-4 you apply for F-1 change of status and if the H-4 expires that's fine. By the way, H-4 allows you to go to school. As soon as you file for the F-1 you should be able to continue going to school. Also check with your DSO.

I am on an H-1B visa and recently got laid off.
If I don't find a job within the 60 days grace period:
1. Can I go back to my home country and keep applying for jobs and then come back once I get one? If yes, would I have to go through the lottery again?
2. If not, what are my options?
3. What additional documents do I need to provide while applying for my new visa to explain the missing pay stubs?
4. What does the company that let me go send to the USCIS as documentation for termination of contract?
Law offices of Rajiv Khanna is very professional in their job. They will make sure to serve you the best and they make sure that you get all the possible help.
I have always had good experience with them hence all the immigration services from my office have been moved to Rajiv Khanna. The staff is prompt, responsive and very helpful and so is Rajiv himself. He takes personal interest and explains things easily.
And I also would like to mention the www.immigrationportal.com forum from Rajiv Khanna, which is an excellent service.
My personal thanks to Rajiv for the services and efforts he is making for the immigration community and his fight to make things right.
I would strongly recommend Rajiv and his law firm.
I can depend on them.
Thank You.
Sincerely,
Sundip.
