Hi,
I had applied for H1 visa through a consultant and got it approved. But due to a fallout with the employer I am no more in terms with them. I have not got my visa stamped yet. I have the following questions regarding this scenario:
1. If i start looking for jobs independently, and say i succeed, will the new employer be able to sponsor my visa just based on the approval available?
2. Since we are already in the middle of october (H1 work start date being 1st October), will there be issues for new employer to transfer since i do not have any paystubs.
3. If the new company applies for my visa again, will it be cap exempt?
4. Is there any fixed timeline by which i should get a job and start working? My h1 approval is there for next three years. Is it ok to get a job anytime round the year, get an approval and go for stamping?
5. In case, my previous employer cancels the approval with uscis, will the new employer still be able to apply in a cap exempt (using the reference of the first canceled approval)?
Please help at the earliest with your replies.
Thanks
