An H-1B visa permits an aspirant to enter the United States to temporarily work at an employer in a specialty occupation.

A person in H-1B status must continue to be employed by their employer in order to stay in H-1B status.

If the person’s employment ends for any reason, the person must leave the United States, unless the person applies for and is granted a change of status or finds another employer compatible with the H-1B status.
