h1b_enquires Posted May 20, 2022 Report Share Posted May 20, 2022 (edited) Hi Folks, I have a question here, i work with company A and my H1b is valid till Aug, 2023. Company B offered me a job and my H1b got successfully transferred with B, however i want to continue to work with company A now. Question 1: Can i continue to work with company A Question 2: Do i need to travel back to india and enter in USA on company A's petition/visa or i can continue with work with company A as if nothing happened? Thanks, Edited May 20, 2022 by h1b_enquires Quote Link to comment

Zodiac System Posted May 23, 2022 Report Share Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) You can continue working with company A. Check with Company B. If they have filed for concurrent H1b, you will be able to work for company B too. Also check your agreements with company B in case you have signed for any non solicitation, non-competitive clause. Good luck. Edited May 23, 2022 by Zodiac System Quote Link to comment
h1b_enquires Posted May 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2022 thanks for the response, what is non solicitation, non-competitive clause? Also i think it was not a concurrent H1b. So i don't need to travel back to india and come back on A's petition? Quote Link to comment
Zodiac System Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 (edited) If you have not yet resigned company A, then you can continue working with company A without traveling to India. Let company B know that you have decided not to join them, however company B will not be thrilled with this news as they have spent thousands of dollars on your transfer petition. (I am not a CPA and do not know if this expenditure can be written off as business loss). Good Luck. Edited May 25, 2022 by Zodiac System Quote Link to comment
