Separation is 27.04.2020. 60 days grace period till 26.06.2020 approx. No H1b transfer within time. Filed H1b to B2 COS. Pending B2, can H1B transfer.

It may be possible to transfer from a pending B2 application to H1B without leaving the US. The B2 application if not yet adjudicated by the time that the H1B petition is being adjudicated is looked upon as a “bridge” application. USCIS will look to see whether the bridge application is approvable. If so, it could favorably adjudicate the H1B transfer petition if that also looks approvable. In such case, it might be in your interest to withdraw the B2 application if USCIS did not act on it prior to making the favorable H1B adjudication.
