Hi All,
I work for a MNC and have a valid H1-B through this company. On this Visa, I traveled to US and stayed there for 3 years. In this duration, I applied for an extension for H1-B and got it transferred while at US. After returning back, my renewed Visa is now valid for 2.5 years more but I have not got the new petition (got after renewal) stamped.
Now, I have been offered a job in US. My question is: Is it possible to have the Visa transferred while I am in India, get the new petition from my new employer at US, have it stamped and then travel with the new petition?
- Is this legally correct?
- Are there risks involved?
Appreciate any advice in this regard.
