H1b Visa Transfer

[Muniasamy]

Hi,

Last year company A processed the H1b visa in  US for me. I got the visa stamping this Feb from India. But I didn't travel using that. But in the meantime, I got another opportunity from Company B and they are saying they will transfer the H1b visa from company A to company B. 

 

My questions are 

1) Is that possible to transfer the VISA from company A to company B without entering USA.

2) If company B starts the Visa transfer process then at what point company a will be notified.

3) If company A comes to know about the VISA transfer process after transferring the VISA will they take any action against me.

4) If the VISA transfer is rejected/denied then still my existing VISA  is valid?

 

Thanks

1) An H-1B transfer is essentially a new application that is not cap-subject. If you can prove a previous approval (i.e., receipt number, copy of I-797), the new employer can transfer the H-1B even if you have yet to enter the country.

2) Company A will be notified by you.

3) Company A's action depends upon the agreement you have signed with them.

4) Yes
