Hi,
I came to US with H1B sponsored by company X before 4 months and my employer is not able to get me a project, I got a call from my HR head couple of days back saying that I have to immediately pay back all the salary given to me in cash since I am in bench for 4 months.I have no clue what to do now, The day I landed in US my employer asked me to sign a agreement for 1 year and if I quit before agreement period I have to pay huge penalty. I don't want to work in this company anymore since I am being harassed to give back the salary.
Can I join some other company who can sponsor my Visa , Will my employer will sue me for breaching the contract.
Please Advise!
