Hi there,
I have recently been laidoff, but since my previous company (that I am still under the payroll till end-Nov 2015) had started the petition process it was approved last week. So, now I have a H1B visa that is valid till end-Nov.
I had started looking for jobs elsewhere and was offered a post with a startup that is in its early stage. Their technology is promising and they received funding recently. They say that they should be able to transfer the H1B visa, however I am concerned if it will come to a point where USCIS might ask for "Request for Evidence" (RFE) and because they are a startup in early stage they are not able to provide enough financial evidence. (I am not aware of their financial information, so I do not know )
Should the H1B transfer be done smoothly, how liable are they to sponsor a green card?
What are the risks?
Thank you.
