Nicky123 Posted April 15, 2013 Report Posted April 15, 2013 Hello, I'm currently on my STEM OPT which will expire in December 2013. I am currently working with company A. The same company A applied for my H1B which is still in process. I got another job offer with company B and I wish to take that offer up. Assuming that my H1B with company A gets approved can I get my H1B transferred to company B before the H1B start date on Oct 1st'13. Please let me know on what needs to be done in order to transfer. Thank you.
wiweq Posted April 17, 2013 Report Posted April 17, 2013 Once the H1b is approved, you can transfer it, even before Oct 1st.
nvallabh Posted April 23, 2013 Report Posted April 23, 2013 Once the H1b is approved, you can transfer it, even before Oct 1st. I was told by my lawyer that I should be with company A (like in nicky123's scenario) as of October 1st and only then Company B can apply for a H1B transfer. Correct me if this is not true. Regards N
