"So they told me they are doing favor of not revoking H1 right away."

it doesn't matter whether or not they revoke it, u have to get paid all the time..Normally they will revoke it to be in safe side so that they don't owe u back wages..

"Right now I don't have valid I-20 right, so I can't file for COS to F1"
u r in H1B , why do you need Valid I20 for?  Unless you join a college , they will Issue you I20 and then u can do COS to F-1.

"Next one is transferring H1 to some desi consultancies, but these days denial rate is too high, until they have some active project on hand."
Yes u r right, until and unless u have a Project in hand , it is more likely that u will be denied the transfer..

"Next one should be Change to B2, I am not sure what is its approval rate is."

if u have all the documents in hand and a proof that u were maintaining status (Having all the paystubs during this period), hopefully it will go through. But spend few bucks with immigration lawyer for a brief consultation ASAP.


BTW,

Can you give me a little detail abt ur background..What field r u working on right now?
