1. Notify the Office of Faculty Affairs (Attn: Carmen Lichtscheidl) to update the records and provide me with additional instructions.
2. Provide the appropriate termination forms to Human Resources

I understand that if the H-1B employee needs to travel outside of the U.S. and if must apply for a new H-1B visa to allow re-entry to the U.S., that there is a risk of delay in his/her obtaining the visa because of security checks by government agencies. The delay may be from a few weeks to several months.
