Hello Friends,
Details of my case:
1) I was working for company ABC on L1B Visa until end of Sept'10.
2) Company ABC had applied for L1B to H1B with COS which is approved.
3) Thus I have been working for the same company ABC on H1B visa since Oct'10. Note that I don't have H1B stamped on my passport as I have not moved out of USA yet after the H1B visa approval.
4) Now Company XYZ gave me an offer which I accepted. They have filed for H1B transfer with a start date of 25th Nov'10. They have filed with premium processing.
Queries:
1) If the petition filed by company XYZ gets approved, am I bound to join them or do I have an option to continue working for my current employer?
2) If the petition filed by company XYZ gets approved and I decide to join them then am I bound to join them on 25th Nov'10 or do I have an option to continue working for my current employer till end of Dec and then join Company XYZ from 1st Jan'11?
Note that I don't have H1B visa stamped on my passport as my last Visa transfer was with COS. Does this have any implications on my freedom to join company XYZ on any date after 25th Nov ?
Would appreciate if senior members of this forum could guide me. Pls let me know if you need further information from me to help you answer my queries.
Thanks in advance.
