mrajeshku Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 I got H1B in Oct 2015 and I traveled to US in June 2016. My Visa was about to expire in July 2018 and meanwhile in April 2018 I switched over my job and applied for Visa Transfer . My visa Transfer got rejected and I came back to India in Sep 2018. I worked in US for 2.4 Yrs and currently working in India. I would like to know if I can transfer my Visa with my current employer. My visa and stamping are expired now, please advice.

NotAnAttorney Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 any employer new or old could file a cap-exempt petition for you. Upon approval and successful stamping you could return to US and start working. As you have only used 2.4 of 6 years cap, you still got 3.6 years of cap quota. Quote Link to comment
JoeF Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) A new employer can file an H1 for you at any time. When it is approved you can get a new visa. Edited July 30, 2019 by JoeF Quote Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 You are eligible for 3.6 years in total of non cap H1 status if a H1 sponsor will file and get a H1 petition approved for you. Quote Link to comment
