Impact of H-1B automatic revocation on future sponsorship and job change: What does 'Case Was Automatically Revoked' mean?
Question details
I was on H1B (shows automatically revoked), then switched to B2, then switched to F1 (current status) without leaving the US.
1 - Will automatic revocation of H1B cause any issues? Is it simply because the employer has submitted a withdrawal after terminating my role?
2 - When I find a new job that sponsors, will the revoked H1B cause any issues? I have only used 4 months of my initial H1B. It will be a switch from F1 to H1B if everything works out.
Just wanted to clarify what "Case Was Automatically Revoked" means; revoked - sounds a bit concerning. My role was terminated.
FAQ Transcript
If your H-1B was automatically revoked after activation (i.e., you were already on H-1B status), it typically won’t affect future sponsorships or job changes. However, if it was revoked before activation, issues may arise, and it’s recommended to re-enter the lottery to ensure eligibility.
