I have an approved H1B petition. But I got the petition only for 14 months i.e. it expires on end of November 2014. Also there is no project in current employer. I am planning to transfer my H1B to a new employer and travel. Now I have the following questions.
1. If new employer transfers H1B visa is it going to automatically cancel my petition of current employer? I mean will my current employer know by any means that I am transferring my H1B to a new employer? If not, then does it mean after my successful H1B transfer I will basically have 2 approved petitions(one from current employer and one from new employer) and I can choose any of them for stamping?
2. If I transfer my H1B and if the petition gets approved then can the new petition be of 3 years validity provided in the document we properly justify my job duration for 3 years? Or my transferred H1B petition will also have same expiry date i.e. November 2014 since my current employer's petition expires on November 2014?
Kindly help.
