Hi,

With employer A , H1B extension application is in progress & at present have receipt number, & I94 is valid till 18th Mar 2020.  

Questions :

1. would like to know if am eligible for H1b transfer to new employer B.  Otherwords, will employer B (new offering employer) consider this case to transfer h1 b.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  2. Do we need valid I94 to transfer H1b to new employer.   or Is it H1b needs to be transfer before valid I94.                                                                                         3.  what are possible options to join new employer B.                                                                                                                                                                                       4. Employer B is fine and offered job.  Would like to know if its Legally possible for Employer B to transfer my H1b.

Your I94 is still valid so you can do a extension of status. But your petition should be filed by I94 expiry date. 

Bridge petition will depend on the approval of Emp A's petition. Consular processing petition means once approved you will have to leave the country and come back with a new visa and new I94.
