H1b Amendment timeline

[aspiration]

Hi 

I have been working on a project with client A and my project has been on a temporary halt due to covid19 situation. I found a new project  Client B which is in a different state but they have agreed for temporary remote work.  Here my question is since I am changing my client I have to go through an amendment to work for a different Client. 

1. What is the timeline when my amendment has to be filed? Can I start working and then file an amendment?

2. My work location will be remote WFH do I need to file an amendment?

I have one more question. Can I work for two clients at the same time remotely?

@aspirationYou should start working only after filing the Amendment.

You can work 2 jobs if you the employer has filed a concurrent H1 for the second job.

Once you start working for B you need to submit H1B amendment as soon as you can. Your employer must do it and not you and if they are decent company they will do as soon as they can.

I feel amendment will be needed since client changes.

If my project at Client A gets resumed can I join back at Client A without amendment? As my H1b is approved with Client A.

I don't think so, since your job ended and you are starting a new job. On H1, you dont have the option of temporary layoff.

Since at client A your job ended and again you are going to start at client A which is considered as new job. I feel without amendment you cannot work at client A.
