After 1st Oct 2014, What is my status (H1B or L2)?

Thanks,

You are on H-1.

Although L-2 was approved later, your H-1 COS had a future approval date (Oct 1). So your remained on L-2 extension from 9/29 to 9/30 and then moved to H-1.

Does that make sense?

Thanks Saurabh!

Yes, this makes sense. I was very much confused between the notice dates.
