Friends,

I am working at "University A" as J-1 scholar since June 2012 and DS2019 is valid till May 2017. I got my waiver and applied for H-1B in March 2016 and still waiting for approval (>8 months). Now, I want to move to another "University B" in January 2017. Can I transfer to new University on current J-1? OR I need to wait for H-1B approval?

Anybody applied for H-1B (normal processing) between March-May 2016 and got approval?

 

Please advise me and let me know at earliest convenience.

Many thanks
