Hi!,
I came in US on May 22 with Company A(a consultancy firm) and I was trying to find project after landing in US. I could not find any C2C project but I got an opportunity from Company B as full time. I accepted the Offer and Company B applied my H1B transfer without paystubs from Company A(as I was trying to find project, so were not running my payroll). On 31 July on receipt of receipt number I joined Company B office(without informing Company A). I worked for Company B almost 3 months when they got RFE for providing paystubs to USCIS. They terminated my employment. Now I have following questions

 

  • What is my legal status?
  • Am I still employee of Company A?
  • What if a Company C wants to transfer my H1B to them using Paystubs of Company B and i797 of Company A. Can they transfer it keeping in my Company B already received an RFE on transfer case. 
  •  Should I go back to Company A and start find the C2C project again?

Please help me getting out of this mess.

As long as company A's petition is not revoked or expired AND you have valid I-94, your status is legal. You are still an employee of company A. 

Company C cannot transfer H1-B based on approved H1-B from company A and pay stubs from company B. 

The best course of action is to start with company A, generate 3-4 pay stubs and then transfer to company C. 

In case nothing works, file a complaint to DOL stating that company A never paid you on H1-B.
