Is my H1-B Case an Exception to the Rule?

[johnom]

Dear ImmiHelp,

Last summer I left my H1-B sponsor to accept a job with another employer.
The new employer promised to apply for an H1 transfer on my behalf.
But two days before I was to start, the employer withdrew their job offer.
My first employer did not take me back.

Besides returning to my home country at this point - 5 months out - do you see any other options for me to keep my H1-B?

Thanks for your advice.


And by the way, I'm from a state where it is legal to terminate an employee without cause (except in the case of discrimination).

You can always transfer the H1B to any other employer from your home country. The new employer will have to file a new H1B using the CAP from the old H1B approval notice. when that gets approved, you can attend the H1B visa interview (if you don't have a valid H1B stamped in your passport as of the date of your return) and re-enter U.S to work for the new employer.
