H1 transfer and extension

[narayang]

Hi,

I am working with Employer A and going to transfer my visa to Employer B under normal processing. My current visa I-797/I-94 is valid till September,2017 with Employer A.
Please clear my below doubts

1) Employer A is submitting extension for me. So can i start work with Employer B on receipt notice only?

2) What will happen if Employer A revokes extension and H1 transfer is still pending ?

3) can employer B file H1 transfer and Visa extension simultaneously?

4) can I shift to premium processing once that is enabled again by USCIS?

Nishantwt : I have the same questions as well, also, in my case, I-797/I-94 is valid till 3rd Aug 2017. So, can't new employer file for transfer along with extension? Is it that the new employer requires I-797/I-94 with atleast 1 year to expire before they file for transfer? Will be helpful with all your responses.

Can I change my employment within 180 days of my I140 approval after the new I140rule

1) My I-140 was approved on Feb, 22 2017 and now I am planning to change my job to another company.
My employer has a policy of revoking the I140 application within 60 days of my job termination. Will I loose my priority date if I leave my current employer within 180 days of my I-140 approval and employer revokes the I-140 application?

2) I am in 6TH year (04/03/2018 - full 6 years) of my h1b and my I140 application was approved on 02/22/2017. Since premium processing is suspended for next 6 months, so if I change my job and my employer revokes my I140 application before the next employer gets my h1b visa transfer approved. Will I get h1b ext for next 3 years or only till end of 6th year which completes on 04/03/2018.

3) If I stay with the same employer for 180 days after my I 140 application approval and priority date is not current yet. Can I change my employer(I140 applicant) and get my h1b visa ext from next employer without filing new PERM/ I140 application.

4) And can I get my h1b extensions from future employments based to the same I140 or do I have to file new I140 applications every time I change my employment.
