When on H1B, can I sublease my apartment and move to a different state?

Hello,

I am on my H1B in Dallas. My wife lives in a different city in North Carolina. Due to covid, my company has asked us to work from home for the rest of the year. I am considering subleasing my apartment and moving to North Carolina for the rest of the year.

- Could you please share your thoughts whether this is alright from an H1B perspective? Will USCIS somehow be concerned that I don't own a house or paying rent in Dallas?

- Also, my perm has been recently filed. Can you also please share your thoughts on any impacts on the GC process?

 

Thanks a lot for your time and help!

If you move more than 50 miles you need do to HB amendment.

Will USCIS somehow be concerned that I don't own a house or paying rent in Dallas? -- USCIS is just interested whether your approved H1B says you work in Dallas now whether is it still valid or not..

Need to update address in GC process.
