Hi,
Similar situation, my question is also regarding L1B - H1B change of status.
Situation:
1. I currently work in the US for company A on L1B visa.
2. Company B filed for my H1B, which was denied initially.
3. Later Company B appealed against the denial of H1B and it got approved yesterday without Change of Status (COS)
4. Company B says there are 2 options:
4.1. Go to my country of Origin and get the H1B Stamped (not preferred).
4.2. Apply for amendment for H1B change of status under Premium processing. Which would cost around $1200+.
Questions:
1. Is there no other options than going for COS amendment.
2. Will the COS amendment in Premium processing cost around $1200+.
3. Are there chances of COS amendment getting denied.
4. If the COS amendment gets approved, do I need to move the next day from Company A (L1B) to Company B (H1B).
Thanks in advance for all the suggestions. Please let me know if there is any other questions you have.
Regards
Syed
