H1B Transfer and Pay Stubs

[onlineseek]

Hi Team,

 

I am currently in US working for employer A on L2-EAD visa. I have been getting regular pay stubs.Employer A has applied for my H1B petition (Cap Exempt, i.e Out of Cap).I have received the acknowledgement receipt but have yet to received the approved petition.  Once I get the approved petition, can I immediately join a new employer B through H1B transfer? Or is there a requirement that I need to have minimum of 2-3 pay stubs on H1B status with employer A before employer B can apply for my H1B transfer?

 

Thanks for your time and help.

 

Regards,

Kiran

Is employer A's petition your 1st H1B petition? If not,  you can transfer immediately to another company. You could start working on receiving receipt notice for H1B petition filed by new employer. But, it is always suggested to get petition approval and start working for new employer.
