jjawahar Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 Hello Bhayyas, [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3] I have an H1B query regarding H1B transfer in Cap-Gap and my case details are as follows.[/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3] Currently, I am working with Employer A from past 1year and is on Cap-gap which is provided to me to be able to legally work in US till 09/30/2013. I had this provision because I have an approved H1B from A which starts from 10/01/2013. Now I have a full time offer from Employer B and they are willing to transfer my H1B as well. [/size][/font][font=arial, sans-serif][size=3] Am I eligible to transfer my H1B to Employer B before October 1st or do I need to wait until then? In case they transfer my H1B, do I need go through consulate process or am I eligible to work for them being in cap-gap?[/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3] FYI: I do not have access to attorney from employerB [/size][/font] [font=arial, sans-serif][size=3] Suggestions would really help me a lot.[/size][/font] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
