Hi All,
I have valid Visa with my current employer Company A till next year July. I want to switch my employer to Company B. I have to travel to India on Nov 23 and I will be back to US in mid of Dec. I need suggestions on when to initiate the H1 transfer request? Company B is expecting me to join on Jan 2, 2017. These are the doubts I have.
1. Can I initiate my H1B transfer and premium process it to get it approved before I travel? and Will it be a problem for me, if I have two approved H1B petitions. One with Company A (current) and one with Company B. In this case I have to work with Company A for two weeks before joining company B.
2. Come back from vacation and initiate the H1 transfer process and premium process. In this case I don't have much time to notify my current employer.
I appreciate your suggestions.
Thanks,
Rumesh
