Hi everyone,

Can we work for 2 employers,both having sponsored H1B for more than 40 hours per week in total.For example working 20 hrs for one employer and 30 hours for another ?
I was thinking that on H1B we are allowed to work for 2 employers,both having sponsored H1B but not for more than 40 hours in total.Let me know.

Thanks,
Ron

Only if the H1 petition was filed as concurrent petition.

This is my opinion not legal advice.

Can you elaborate on this please?
You mean the overlap can be for a short while until the new petition is approved?
