I still have valid I-797 with my Old Employer A till 10/2020. Is it possible to move to my old Employer and keeping same client? If Yes what is the process Do I need to file Amendment for new location Do I need to do any other things to work with my old Employer BR// Chandu Quote Link to comment
JoeF Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 The old employer was required by law to inform USCIS that you no longer work there. That means the old H1 petition was revoked. If the old employer wants to hire you back the have to file (and pay for) a new H1 petition. Quote Link to comment

gopalakrishnach Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Is it possible to move to my old Employer and keeping same client? -- as per law if employee moves out, employer must let USCIS know and revoked H1B. Your old employer must have done it else it will be illegal. If they did and if you want to go back they need to submit new H1B petition, Quote Link to comment

The old employer by law had to inform USCIS that you no longer work there. That made the old I-797 invalid. If they didn't inform USCIS they would have to pay you for all the time you weren't working for them. If they want to hire you back they have to file a new H1 petition.

Unfortunately, Old petition will not work. It will be treated as a new job. Quote Link to comment
