Travelling to USA from India on previous employer i797 & H1B Visa

[pbakash]

Dear Sir/Madam,

 

Need your kind help on my query. 

 

I was in US for one year from the period Apr 2015 to June 2016 and returned back to India. Now I have resigned. My US visa is stamped till October 2017. One of a desi US consultancy wants me to travel to US on my previous stamped Visa and then search for a job. Once a job is obtained they told they will initiate the H1B transfer at onsite. My previous employer has not revoked the H1B. 

 

So Can I follow the procedure told by the desi consultancy? Will it have any impact on my future Visa stampings?

 

 

Thanks for your kind help.

 

Regards,

Akash

That would be immigration fraud, because you would not be working for the H1 employer.

It would get you into lots of trouble.

Find a better employer, one who doesn't suggest breaking the law! A company that suggests such stuff is a fraud!

Don't do it!

It's fraud. And it's pretty clear that the consultancy you're working with is a shady operator - these are the companies that are making H1-B a dirty word.

Find a reputed employer, make your way here the right way and you'll have the peace of mind.
