I am wondering if someone might be able to answer this question. I understand that there is a 60 day grace period if you lose your job on H1b. But I resigned from my job recently (last day is this Friday) due to family reasons. I am currently scheduled to fly back on September 10th. Basically I will accumulate close about 26 days of stay here when I am not on H1b. Should I apply for a change of status to H4? I can fly back on the 1st as well. Not sure if the grace period applies to me. I don't have any plans of coming back to the US on H1b again. I will probably apply for a B2 visa next year (we will move to Canada sometime early 2021).
