H1B approved - options working at USA

[Hari babu Aluri]

Hi,

My H1B Work Permit case filed from Indian IT employer and it  got approved for the year 2018-19. Unfortunately, there are no current demands at the US location where my case was filed and employer is not willing to process stamping and not ready to handover I-797 B form as well. In my current situation, please suggest the options available to work at USA either from current employer or with new employer. Kindly help.

 

Regards,

Haribabu

That H1 is gone. Find a better employer for next year.

Somehow I feel your employer is doing a favor by not doing your stamping and also not giving you I-797B form since the demand at US location for which  your case was applied is no longer available/valid. Even if you go to visa stamping by some mean you will get into trouble. So find new employer do H1B transfer/apply new..

Check this out to get a copy of your already approved H1 petition - https://www.uscis.gov/g-639

Once you have it, find a new employer who can process the H1 transfer and come on that petition & visa.

You cannot a H1B transfer without working for the original petitioner. This the Op's first H1B I presume, so he needs to fine a new cap-subject petition next year with a different employer. This H1 is now gone, there is nothing to transfer.

Nowadays, unless the person starts working for the original H1 employer (or at least gets the H1 visa) the person is not considered counted for the quota, so a transfer is not possible. As I said earlier, that H1 is gone.
