tejalks 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2013 I am currently on working with Company A - full time H1 B. I am looking for a H1 transfer, below are my questions : 1) Do I need to file for a full time H1 only or can I just file for one part time H1 ? Meaning I will only work part time with one company. If this is a possibility, then how many hours are considered as part time work per week ? I know one can file different part time h1's with more than one company but I am not aware if one can just file for a part time with one company ? 2) If I file a full time H1 transfer - the max hours one can work on this is 40 hrs per week. Are there any specified number of minimum hours on a full time H1 ? Any help on this is appreciated ... Share this post Link to post

Are you on OPT or CPT along with part time H1 ?? or you are just on part time H1b ? Share this post Link to post
job2013 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2013 Hi Priyal86, I have a question for you. Is the part time h1b your only visa right now? Someone told me that you need a full time h1b to stay in the country, so just checking since I want to apply for a part time h1b next year. Thank you! Share this post Link to post
JoeF 7 Report post Posted July 8, 2013 Thanks a lot Priyal.. Are you on OPT or CPT along with part time H1 ?? or you are just on part time H1b ? OPT and CPT are part of the F1. A person can ONLY be in one status at a time, so it would be either F1 or H1. Both at the same time is not possible, by definition. Share this post Link to post

You of course need to make enough money to actually survive here... Share this post Link to post
