Hi All,
Need your kind suggestion in the below case.
I am currently with Company 'A' on H1-B and my current I-94 is expired on 2-Sep-11. Company 'A' applied for my H1-B Extension on 2-May-11 and received a RFE on 28-Jul-11 and replied to RFE on 28-Sep-11.
Company 'B' applied for H1 transfer on 20-Sep-11 (18 days after I-94 expiry) as a bridge petition and got approval on 29-Sep-11 (premium).
Question:
1. Can I join Company-B now?
2. If extension with Company A gets rejected, will it also invalidate already approved H1 Transfer for B?
3. How many days I will be out of status? 18 days(I-94 expiry and h1 transfer filing)?
4. In that case, can I go outside US and get a visa stamping for B to come back and work again?
5. If answer for #4 is yes, will the visa stamping be affected by the out of status reason?
6. Is there any alternate option available?
Appreciate your help.
Regards,
KG
