    does "filing" = "mailing"?

    I work for Employer-A as H-1B.
    USCIS says: "nonimmigrant may begin working for NEW H-1B employer as soon as new employer FILES a H-1B petition".

    QUESTION: is it LEGAL to begin working for Employer-B on the SAME day Employer-B CERTIFIED-MAILS a H-1B petition?
    If not, how soon?

    Thank you all.

    It is legal to work the day USCIS receives the petition.

    I am not a lawyer and you need to consult with one to validate any info posted on the forum and discuss your case specifics. H1b Question? Read the FAQ first.

      but, what if the USCIS denies the petition and the current employer A cancels the H1?
      The person will be in a big problem.
      What do u think ?

        Yeah, that is a problem and one needs to be aware of it with H1b portability.
