New H1B- What happens to old H1B

[ohiouser]

Hi,

I am currently on H1B and is valid till 2015. However, i have a better offer from another company and would like to transfer my H1B. My question is if the new H1B doesnt get approved for some reason, can i still use my old H1B to continue or will it be cancelled automatically because i applied a new one. Please share me your thoughts.

Thanks

A new H1 will not transfer/affect your current H1.

You can still keep working with your current employer and once you get the approval you can make your decision.

You can negotiate this with your new employer that you will not start working with him unless your new H1 gets approved.
