H1B without reciept number

[admac]

Are we legal to work without a receipt for the H1B application. I know with a receipt we can since H1B is pending application.

 

Is it considered a pending application as long as they've received the packet...?

Without a receipt number you can not. Even with a receipt number if you join with out an approval there is risk involved

[omshiv]

you can start working only after you receive a receipt.
