H1 B transfer & stamping Issue

[deepthivasireddy]

Hello everyone,

                         I work in a pharma company and presently on my OPT.My current employer sponsored my H1 which will start from Oct 1st 2013.So now the company is in a financial crisis and is not able to pay us on time.

 

1. Can i go for stamping with this company(my pay stubs are not up to date)?

2. If i find another employer can I transfer my H1 without stamping and need any documents from the old company?

3. When can I file transfer and how many days it will take?

 

I am actually so confused & need some information.can you guys help please.

Thanks in advance.

Deepthi.

1. Stubs are not very relevant for post completion OPT if that is what you are doing. But if they cannot pay look for another H1 sponsor as you have been cap counted.

2. You can have another company file a non cap H1 petition for you.

3. First find a new sponsor. Have a Lawyer go over your facts to make sure everything is kosher.

1. Can i go for stamping with this company(my pay stubs are not up to date)? - Since the pay stubs are not up-to-date, I would say - not to take a risk at this point in time.

2. If i find another employer can I transfer my H1 without stamping and need any documents from the old company? - Yes (experts advice pls)  you can transfer your employer from AAA to BBB as long as BBB is ready to do the H1B transfer. Documents that BBB ask is - your approved I797 (petition bundle) from AAA, recent pay stubs  (I see there is some issue going on), , transcripts, resume

3. When can I file transfer and how many days it will take? - Once you find a new employer - you can start the process of transferring your H1 to them and if they do Premium Processing, it should take 10 (max 15) business days for the decision.

 

Thanks,

Mani

--any time , it depends, if you are in a hurry do premium processing
