Scenario: Below are the events in chronological order
1. Company A I'm working for right now files H1 extension and it is approved by USCIS in Feb'14. Approval is till June 2015
2. I get an offer from Company B, but due to emergency I go back to India in Feb'14
3. Company B files H1 transfer while I'm in India in Apr'14 through premium processing and is approved by USCIS in Apr'14.Approval is till April 2015
4. Company B asks me to get Visa stamping done by myself and reach US to join them but I refuse to do that.
5. I get stamping done through Company A in August 2014. Visa stamping valid till June 2015. I reach US
6. Company B is requesting me to join ASAP.
Questions:
1. Is it legally correct to join Company B since I have my stamping done through an earlier petition from Company A and not through the petition from Company B? Stamping has been done in August 2014 through Company A but Company B's H1 transfer got approved in April 2014
2. I have Visa stamping from Company A till June 2015 . If I join Company B and if I go to India before June 2015, should I get stamping done through Company B?
3. Inspite of H1 transfer being approved, can there be any legal trouble if I choose not to join Company B?
