H1B COE Petition Approved - Can i continue with my current employer

[KMadhuCA]

Hi 

I am working with Company A, I797 is approved till Oct 2018 and have stamping based on same I797(Also I140). Now i got an offer with Company B and their H1B Transfer is also approved(They call it as COE, not sure what is the difference between regular H1 transfer and COE). Now, i changed my mind to continue at Company A.

Can i continue with Company A even though Company B has COE H1B approved petition?  

What is the difference between regular H1B transfer and COE?

Will there be any issue in future during renewals?

Can i travel to india and come back with Company A I797 in future?

Will there be any issue in Port Of Entry?

Thanks in advance.

1. Yes

2. H1-B Transfer is generalized layman's language when you switch your employer. The official term applies in your case is COE (Change of employer). This may help you https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-129instr.pdf
