suhina Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 Hello! I have been working with a US firm since 2017 (CPT), 2019 (OPT). I came back to India in March 2019 and continued to work with the same employer as an independent contractor. Now the same company has applied for my H1B and it has been approved. I am filling with DS 160 form, and would like to know what to fill under 'Start Date' of Current Employment. I am torn between 2019 or March 2020 (I will arrive in the US in March 2020 and start working with the same company). Thank You in advance. Quote Link to comment
User099 Posted February 12, 2020 Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 It is the date you first started working for that employer, in your case it might be 2017 if there are no breaks. Quote Link to comment
gopalakrishnach Posted February 12, 2020 Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 Ask your employer what date they are putting in offer letter which must match the letter which they kept in H1B petition.. Quote Link to comment
