As long as it is not filed and approved as COS you can work for company A on L1B.

please consult a lawyer.

 

no, if you apply change of status from L1 to H1 and got your approval, you are no longer on L1 and not eligible to work for company A. you will need to work for company XYZ under H1.

 

you continue to be on L1 while H1 application is pending.

Hi All ,

Here is my current scenario

 

I am on L1B visa and currently working XYZ company and they asked me go back to India in another 10 days.

As I mentioned I have valid H1B petition from ex-employer which is active and I found a project who are ready do H1 transfer with the ex-employer but they told i cant join untill H1 transfer is completed.

 

So lets say I quit my current job on 9th day with current XYZ company and meantime fill my H1 transfer in perimum processing , Can I stay in country for 5 - 7 days until its get approved???

 

Pls help

Even though you are out of status a few days will not matter. But, if your cap exempt H1B petition will be filed after last day with L1B employer then your H1B petition will be approved without I94.
