Query on H1B Transfer

[pranay3984]

I have a H1B Visa with my current employer.However i have not travelled to US yet.

Is it mandatory to travel to US once through the employer which had applied the Visa initially before getting the H1B transferred to a New Employer.

Not necessary. When was the original petition applied?

This is my opinion not legal advice.
