H1B transfer within a small timeline

Recommended Posts

Hello, I am currently on OPT and have an approved H1 that will be effective from October 1st from Company A. I have an offer to join Company B and they have agreed to initiate the H1 transfer before October 1st. My question is, given this very small window (nearly 8-9 days) can the company file for my H1 transfer and get a receipt during this short interval. I am assuming that with all the paperwork involved, even by expediting the process on their end, they might be able to send out the H1B application to USCIS by 24th September. This leaves only about 5-6 days for USCIS to generate a receipt. So should I expedite the process or is it better to wait for my H1 to begin with company A and then later transfer to Company B after getting few pay stubs by working on H1 for Company A. Please help.
