I am currently working on OPT-STEM (F1 status). My H1B got approved in Oct 2012 and I have received an I797B notice. I have not got the visa stamped yet. Is it possible that I can change companies and the new company can get an H1 transfer for me before I get the H1 visa stamped?

Originally posted by coolindia View PostThank you, kabkaba. My H1 is however approved without change of status. I received I797B without I-94 card. I am curious if I797B interviews are different than those for I797C. Is it more rigorous and invites more scrutiny?This is my opinion and not legal advice.
