Hello Everyone!

My story------

Worked for Co-A very long time,Have 140 approved on EB-3 from them.

Quit Co.-A last year joined Co.-B .Employer did H1-B transfer and didn't do AC-21 recommended by Co.-B lawyer ,and started GC again on EB-2.Employer took care of GC filing expenses.

Now got a better offer from the client ie. Co.-C willing to file EB-2 again.

But i am scared to tell CO.-B since they don't want me to quit.Also They won't give me my one month pay to cover the cost for GC filing.

My questions----

1.can i have multiple H1-B s?

2.Does Co.-B has any control on my approved I-140?

3.What kind of story i can tell to Co._B in order to get my pay ?

I have huge medical bills to pay and need my pay.Please help me with some convincing story.

4.Is not employer is suppose to pay for GC cost by law?

Please-----please help me with this

Thanks a million.

1. Yes. It's unusual, but possible.

2. Yes, they may withdraw it. But you would not need it if you are moving on, anyway.

3. If you earned it, they will have to give it to you. If you have not, then don't lie.

4. The employer has to pay for LC. The rest if to be decided between you and your employer.

Regarding the medical bills. Read the article in this week's issue of Time (available online for free). It's excellent. Then, negotiate. And make sure you get health insurance from employer - the kind that does not have the limits.

That's not how you described it.

"Quit Co.-A last year joined Co.-B .Employer did H1-B transfer and didn't do AC-21 recommended by Co.-B lawyer ,and started GC again on EB-2.Employer took care of GC filing expenses."

Based on your explanation, B has filed a new case in EB2. If they filed an I-140 in your name, they may withdraw it.
