Do you already have an approved I797? H4 to H1b COS is done by the employer filing an amendment using form I129. Look at the processing dates on your service center for this form.

Originally posted by vbpraveenkThanks. I have I797 with me. Visa stamping interview is scheduled on July 17. But am supposed to start my work from July 1. I am starting my orientation training in 3 days.
Is this your first time H1? If yes, you cannot work until Oct 1st.Check out H1 FAQs first!

You have to wait for the COS to be approved first before you can begin any work. How did the HR folks even give you a start date without confirming this and the H1b transfer/COS?

You are good to go. This is a wasted discussion. Had you told this fact that you have a I797A in the very post, this would not have existed. Did you not see the text on your I797a when you posted the first post?
