ashar7 Posted October 24, 2013 Report Posted October 24, 2013 Hi Scenario I was with Company A till 30 th Sep 2013 on L1 Visa Company B processed my H1B in April 2013 and it got approved. I started working for company B from Oct 1 2013. I have not received first pay yet from Company B, but scheduled to receive it shortly. I have good offer from Company C. Questions Can Company C initiate my H1B transfer NOW even though i have not received my first pay from company B ? Can i start working for Company C once the receipt number is received or i would have to wait for approval

You are allowed to start based on receipt notice though it is strongly suggested not to. What would be your status if company C's petition is denied and company B has revoked your H1B petition after your resignation? Your choice.
ashar7 Posted October 25, 2013 Author Report Posted October 25, 2013 Thanks for responding back.I have not yet received paystubs from company B. Can company C initiate the transfer (apply H1, quota exempt) ?

Can company C initiate the transfer (apply H1, quota exempt) ? Yes, they can. But, you need to provide latest pay stubs from company B to show that you are maintaining legal status in US. If you do not provide them when company C files a H1B petition for you it will end up with a RFE.
ashar7 Posted October 25, 2013 Author Report Posted October 25, 2013 Thanks. Does offer letter from company B works as a proof to show that am maintaining legal status ?
