Changing employers while H1B is still being processed?

[sdpkelkar]

Hi.

I'm a recent graduate on an OPT that expires in Jan 2014. My current employer has filed for an H1B visa (premium processing ) and I have received the receipt for it. I am looking to change my job. In understand that the H1B will be activated only on Oct 1. Can I change jobs before then (assuming my H1B is approved)?

Thanks!

Once your H1b is approved, a new employer can file your cap exempted H1b.
