pradeepb Posted May 6, 2013 Report Posted May 6, 2013 Hi guys, I got my H1B stamped during 2010 from company A in India and it expired in 2012 without being used. I'm planning to switch to company B. I found out that I can re-use the previous approval to get a new stamping as cap-exempt from company B through members of this forum. Now, is there any time line as to when I should apply for the new 797 approval? Some say I should have done it before the H1B petition filing period ends i.e., sometime in April. The employer says they can do it as soon as I join them. Please clear this confusion for me. Thanks in advance for your help. Rgds, Pradeep
rangadu Posted May 7, 2013 Report Posted May 7, 2013 Given that you were already counted under the cap, you can apply anytime you have a job offer ready and employer is willing to file the petition.
