Yes, i don't think this should be a problem. Please consult your attorney.

Not much chance to return to US because of the executive order suspending h1b visas

Afaik, it is applicable for people who are outside of US. I could be wrong.

Any employer can file a cap exempt petition which can claim for the remaining period of your H1. But since there is an executive order suspending H1, you can try when the suspension is lifted.

No, as long as you have a valid extension, you are good. Visa is only for your entry into United States.

It is normal for companies to withdraw their petition that results in revocation. Nothing to worry, you ate covered and eligible for cap exempt filing. Good luck!

No more lottery this year. 65000 petitions have been selected and cap meet.

The US government and USCIS will do everything to help you in these times. Contact USCIS directly or through attorney. However, things would hopefully cool down before your expiry facilitating your travel back to your home country.

1. Yes, you will get a new I94. 2. If I'm not mistaken you would get a new I-94 with your extension.

Yes you can. Once you join company B, you will need to resign from B to join C.

My understanding is you need to get your H1 stamped to activate it.

Two weeks validity for an approval ? That is too short. What kind of work do they want you to do? how can they file extension if you have not joined them? 1. Nothing happens. You can continue to work for Employer A. 2. Once you join Employer B, you will have to transfer your H1 back to Employer to start working for them. It is not A's I-94. It is yours.

I think you should talk to your attorney and have them file an extension petition immediately.

Any update on this case?
