Urgent: H1B Transfer to FTE while Amendment is in progress

[balakumar514]

Hi everyone,

I need some guidance with my current situation.

 I am working as a consultant with my current employer and recently got my h1 extension approved for 3 years at client location A. I have my I140 approved with the same employer as well.

I started at a new client B very recently (less than 2 weeks) and my employer filed for my H1 amendment for the same new client location

I got a FTE offer this week and I would like to accept that.

Q1. While interviewing for the FTE position, I was at client A. By the time I got an offer from them (I got the offer this week), I am at client B now. The new company does not know about my new work assignment at client B as I had to switch projects due to layoffs at client A. Now when they want to transfer my h1, should i inform them about the amendment? 

Q2. What will happen to my current amendment while the new employer does my transfer(for FTE)? After I get my approval , will the amendment get cancelled or get revoked ?

Kindly suggest me as to how to navigate in this situation

Thank you!

1) Yes you need to tell them everything since you need to provide documentation to them and they do your H1B.

2) Once you move FTE old H1B will get revoked. Its by law.
