WP Holder leaving job

[sweetpea35]

Help! After only 7 months in my UK job, I have decided to give my notice as we have been unable to resolve some work issues. I have given my 8 weeks notice and will leave my job at the end of June.

I have a lease through December, and I would really like to stay in the UK. But I am confused about my options.

1. To make sure I don't mess up any future WP applications, do I need to go home to the U.S. and come back on a visitor's visa?

2. My employer has agreed to be helpful, by doing whatever I need to not get deported. My understanding is that they send a letter to the home office stating termination of my employment. Should I tell them to delay or not send the letter? But will not sending the letter hurt my future chances?

3. What are my options for staying? Another work permit, HSMP, etc?

Thank you so much for any advice offered.
