The 60-day clock is ticking. For an H1B professional, a sudden layoff isn't just about losing a job—it's about losing your life in the United States. Faced with the monumental task of uprooting your family and navigating a complex financial shutdown, the questions can be overwhelming:

• What should I do with my 401(k) and IRA? Cashing out could cost me a fortune.

• How can I possibly sell my house and car in time?

• What are the hidden U.S. tax traps I need to know about, like FIRPTA?

• How do I manage my U.S. investments, bank accounts, and life insurance from India?

• What are the first financial steps I need to take when I land back home?
