Hi,
My wife currently holds L1A status but will be resigning from her job (effective mid july). I have TN status so our plan is to file form I-539 requesting a change of status from L1A to TD.
My question is would it be better to file the I-539 a couple of weeks before her last day (hoping it will be approved shortly after her last day since TD can't work) or just file the I-539 immediately after she stops.
The timing is awkward because I don't want her to be switched to TD until after her last day but also don't want her to go out of status because she has stopped working.
We are planning the trip around her last day. Her last official day on the payroll will occur while she is in Canada and she will re-enter a few days later.
