Hello,
I looked through this forum for this question but couldn't find one which exactly matched my question. So here it is.
I have a question regarding H-1B transfer.
I am presently working with employer A under a H-1B visa and I have two years remaining on it.
I recenlty got a job offer from company B and they filed for a H-1B transfer. I am yet to receive
the H-1B transfer receipt as it is expected to take 2 - 3 weeks before this happens.
I plan to travel internationally once a H-1B transfer receipt number is assigned while I am still working with employer A.
Once I am back from my international travel, I plan on intimating employer A and eventually working for employer B.
Questions:
Do I risk re-entry because of international travel while being assigned a H-1B transfer receipt?
Do I have to deal with any American consulate matters while I am at the foreign country due to the H-1B transfer process?
Other than the usual documents, is it expected of me to show any other special proof due to the H-1B transfer?
At what stage will employer A come to know about the H-1B transfer request from employer B and could this cause a problem?
Thank you all in advance.
Allan
