u must have h1b transfer petition receipt handy to say u r in "status
change pending", which is a legal status to stay not work.
as in ur scenario, i would think ur wife is actually out of status right
now before getting receipt, strictly speaking. but if her employer still
have another paycheck in next two weeks, or they plan to report to INS
later on, then she is legally staying here.
if illegal stay is more than 180 days then it will be in serious trouble,
but if it is just a couple of weeks
