H1 Transfer case possibilities

[pranjal]

Hi All,

I got my H1B stamped in Oct 2006 valid through Sep 2009 from my immediate previous employer YYYY & i resigned from YYYY immediately after stamping & joined my present employer due to some inevitable constraints .

I have never travelled to US & worked for any US assignments on behalf of my petitioner YYYY with that H1B.

Then my present employer processed my B1 visa & travelled to US with B1 visa newly processed in May 2007....

It has been more than a year since the H1B stamping .....However i do still carry the photocopies of the relevant docs including APPROVED PETITION PAPER by INS .....

I dont know if my petitioner REVOKED my H1B or not ???????????

Now do i stand any remote chances for transfering this H1B to your organisation by exploring/exploiting the legalities involved in it ??

Reason being is ideally H1B transfer is not possible from India.!!!!!!!!!!!

One consulting firm claims to transfer my H1 right here from India with a price tag of $1500 ????


Is that claim VALID at all ???? or they cheat people .....

Hope you will save me from any cheater ......

If you have never been into US, even George Bush can not transfer your H1 visa while you are out side US.

Your H1 only can be transfered while you are in US with a valid I 94 card with caveat H1B1.

You get your I 94 card only at any US Port of Entry. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
