H1B Transfer approved_can we go back to previous employer??

[sandysandeep]

Hi,

I have my h1b transfer approved and i worked with the new employer for about an year. Now if want to go back to old employer do i need to file transfer or just and work normally? My old employer not revoked my h1b so can i go back and just work with them? Or else do i need to file transfer again or do something before i work with my old employer? My i-94 is valid for other 2 years and its current

Hi,

If the previous employer has not withdrawan your H1b and LCA, he is liable to pay your salary, therefore you should be able to go back to him.  Better to check with an immigration attorney too.

Yeah they haven't withdrawn it since i asked them not to do it, but salary they aren't paying since i am not working. So i like to go back now with them again.

They were required by law to inform USCIS that you no longer work there. If they didn't do that they have to continue paying you.

Yeah but i never informed them that i got transferred. So is this i need to do?

You quit your old job. As soon as you did that the employer was required by law to inform USCIS that you no longer work there.

If they want to hire you back they ha e to file a new H1 petition for you.
