  • H1B transfer while in USA

    Hello

    If someone is on H1B and working in USA, how easy is to transfer the H1B from one employer to other? Does candidate has to do it by himself or new employer has to transfer the visa?
    How long does the process takes? Can person quit the current employer, as soon as he finds new employer or he needs to wait until transfer of visa takes place?

    Thanks

    Employer needs to do visa transfer. You can start working for new employer as soon as you get the receipt notice.

      >>> Only the employer can file the transfer.

      How long does the process takes?
      >>> 5-6 months by normal process and 15 days by premium.

      Can person quit the current employer, as soon as he finds new employer or he needs to wait until transfer of visa takes place?
      >>> You are allowed to work for the new employer upon receiving the H1B transfer receipt notice. However, it is risky. If the transfer gets denied, then you will have no option other than to leave the country immediately. So it is advisable to join only after the transfer gets approved.
