Q.

Immediate conversion to H4

I just had a lay off and employer told that they have applied for my H1b revocation. I want to immediately convert to H4
1) Can I travel to San Diego, CA and from there walk to Tijuana on Mexico side and walk back to US side and get new I94 with H4 status on that I94.
2) I read in different forums that the CBP officer are providing I94 only when asked. Will CBP officer provide me I94 with H4 status.
3) In which case will the officer not provide me I94 with H4 status
4) Can I use this H4 I94 to apply for new H1 visa if an employer is willing to employ me?
5) If my husband accompanies me while crossing to mexico and then back in US should he request new H1 I94 too or he can keep his current I94?
6) Instead of all this, is it better to fly out from US to Canada and fly back in US ?
