Information H1B Stamping Process after Transfer needed!

[shriram_vaidhyanathan]

Hi all,

I am currently in the US and I got my h1b successfully transferred from employer A to employer B last month (July) while I was in the US. I am planning to travel to India in the month of November this year. I would like to know if I have to go for h1b visa stamping interview in India or not while returning? If I have to go for stamping, what is the procedure and do I have to go for Biometrics as well? If not, how to get my visa stamped because my employer B should get reflected in my passport VISA?

Some facts:
My employer A H1B is valid till June next year.
My employer B H1B is approved and I have the 797 documents with me.

Please help.
