visaimmig Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Hi All I have been working for Company A on H1B and recently got my H1B stamped at Canada. As soon as I came back I got an offer from Company B for which I have applied an yr ago and now they are interested to transfer my H1B. But the problem is I really would like to visit India in the mean time as I have not gone since 5years now , can you please suggest if I can leave the country while my H1B is being transferred? or while it is getting transferred, can I come back with the same H1B stamp I had with my previous employer? am sure my old H1B will not be revoked until I return. Really confused, please suggest. Thanks Link to comment
inafixkiddo Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 You can come back with the company A's H1b stamp provided you carry the new I-797 from company B. When you leave the country, the I-94 of the company A will be handed over at the departure port and your I-797 of Company B will not be contain any I-94 as far as my knowledge is concerned. Just check with other guys on this forum as well. Link to comment

wiweq Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 inafixkiddo is correct, no need of new stamping, use new I797. Link to comment
