I understand job market is tough but what you are asking is called fraud. Don’t do this. Try to find a new job, my understanding is that H1B holders get 60 days to find a new job. If you can’t, then return to your home country and find a job there

No - once you have been notified the wheels are turning on the separation. In terms of your visa, the immigration dept at Fidelity will guide you through (and assist you) with the next steps (I.e. what you can do).

I’m writing a book on this very subject but can’t publish until I’m permanently out of the workforce. It’s way too controversial.
But it might be sooner than later.
@OP right. Game the system. Just what we need - more fraud and visa abuse in the USA.
Wouldn't that be unethical?
