What should the H-1B visa holder do if they want to stay in the US after being laid off?

What should the H-1B visa holder do if they want to stay in the US after being laid off?

The employer is required to notify the USCIS that the H-1B visa holder was terminated so he will be out of status as soon as USCIS is notified. 

He should change his status as soon as possible since there is NO grace period.

But, if the period out of status is very short, a change, extension or amendment of status will usually be approved.
