Hi,
I am currently working on H1B with company A. I have 1 year and 3 weeks left on my H1B visa before I complete 6years on H1B. (I complete 6 years on H1B on 20th April 2015). My current employer (company A) has not initiated PERM/green card process.
I got a new job offer this week from Company B and I want to switch job and join the new company B. My questions are:
(1) Can my H1B be transferred to company B with 1 year and 3 weeks left to complete 6 years? Do you foresee any problems with H1B transfer?
(2) How much time does it take to transfer H1B? How soon can I start working for Company B?
(3) Can I join Company B as soon as they submit a H1B transfer application? OR do I have to wait for H1B transfer to be approved and the new petition to arrive?
(4) Would company B be able to initiate my PERM/Green Card process, as soon as I join them? Is 1 year and 3 weeks too little time to initiate PERM process?
Thanks a lot in advance. Appreciate your help in this matter.
