Thazhamboo Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Hi, I have filed my H1B transfer to new employer under PP in CSC. It has been denied based on lack of employer-employee relationship. In that they have mentioned that "The beneficiary may remain in the current nonimmigrant status until the expiration date indicated on Form I-94. Should the beneficiary fail to maintain the non-immigrant status, or said status expires, the beneficiary must depart the United States ". However, my I-94 expires on Jun-2015. I like to know what are the options that I have other MTR: 1. Can I continue to work with new employer or goback to old employer or new transfer? 2. How long I can continue stay in this country? 2. How long AAO will take to answer the decision? 3. What are the possibilities for my family back to USA? Appreciate all your views Thanks, Shan Link to comment
metroguy Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 your best bet is to talk to your previous employer to see if he is willing to take you back and continue working on his H1B if it is not already revoked. Link to comment
wiweq Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 Where are you working currently? Old employer or new employer? Link to comment
Thazhamboo Posted February 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 @Wiweg - I am currently working with new employer. Planned to file MTR on next week. Link to comment

" => It doesn't matter if the old employer revoked OP's H1b or not. If the employer - employee relationship terminated, they have to file a new H1b for re-hiring the OP. If the OP is still working with old employer, then its ok, s/he can continue working for the same employer. Link to comment
itsmeusa Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 You can go back to your old employer if he has not revoked H-1B and ready to re-hire you. That's the only option you have. Working with new employer while waiting for MTR is ok, but it back-fires if MTR is denied. Your stay after leaving old employer will be counted as unlawful presense. Link to comment
Thazhamboo Posted February 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Can I continue to work with new employer until we get the final answer by Motion To Reopen? Link to comment
Thazhamboo Posted February 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Thank you for both to answer my questions: Link to comment
wiweq Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 "You can go back to your old employer if he has not revoked H-1B and ready to re-hire you. That's the only option you have." => For re-hiring OP's old employer has to file H1b again. No matter H1b was revoked or not. Once the employer-employee relationship is broken, a new H1b is the only option to create this relationship again. Link to comment
JoeF Posted February 16, 2013 Report Share Posted February 16, 2013 You can go back to your old employer if he has not revoked H-1B and ready to re-hire you. An employer is actually required by law to inform USCIS if an H1 employee no longer works for the employer, so that the petition gets revoked. If an employer doesn't do that, ask yourself, do you really want to work for an employer who doesn't care about the laws? Link to comment
