H1B Transfer, Salary and Out of Status

[sevuganh]

My current employer requires 4 weeks notice, and has a clause in employee handbook that, its company's choice to pay me during those 4 weeks notice period.

1) Is it save to give 4 weeks notice to my current company only after I get my EAC receipt number for H1B Transfer?

2) If my current company does not pay , even if I worked for them 4 weeks full time, is it legal on their part to do such a thing? I think employer should pay H1B Employee per agreed salary on I-797. But can such a clause on employee handbook, can make them not to pay during those 4 weeks?

3) If in case I do not get paid during those 4 weeks, though I work for my current company will I become out of status?

You should discuss this with a labor lawyer.

That clause looks very one-sided, and may be invalid.
