H-4 pending and changed job

[nana135]

Hello ,

 

I moved from employer A to employer B. H-4 for my family is still pending with USCIS which I filed using the employer A's I-797. Now I got new I-797 through employer B and about to join employer B. I requested employer A not to withdraw my H-1 until I receive H-4 approval. I have the following question

 

1. Shall I wait for H-4 approval or make my family travel to India immediately for stamping ?

2. Is it mandatory for employer A to withdraw H-1 or can he opt not to withdraw ?

 

Thanks !!

1. Update USCIS with a copy of employer B's I797.

2. If you are not working for them what is the need for them to proceed with your H1B?
