Employer asking for I-797

[samsonkiran]

Hi all,

I recently transferred by H1B from Company A (current employer) to Company B & filed my resignation with Company A. Now the Company A (current employer) is asking me return the Form 1-797 to them.

Is it OK to return the form I-797?

Will this going to affect my proposed the GC process?

Please advice. Thanks in advance.

Regards

Kiran

You can make a copy of the I-797 for your records and return the original/first I-797 to the employer as by law it is theres to keep. But make sure you have your I-797 from the transfer approval, that also actually belongs with the new employer, all you need to have is the I-94 which is attached to the bottom of the I-797.
