a*****b 发帖数: 2789 | 1 Hello,
I want to ask a question about h1b transfer. Can i transfer freely from H-1B
Exempt to regular H1-B?
A: If you have only held H-1B Exempt status, and have not worked for a non-
exempt (i.e. - "regular") U.S. employer, you cannot file a transfer "freely"
. You would need to be counted under the H-1B cap at least once. Your
transfer petition would need to be filed April 1, 2008 and be subject to the
lottery for the 65,000 available H-1B visas under the cap.
However, your current H-1B with t | a*****b 发帖数: 2789 | 2 Hello,
Q: Thanks so much for your quick reply. Well, I don''t have any h1b visa
right now. All my questions are based on my assumptions. Please check
whether my points are correct after read your answer:
A: You are very welcome!
Q2: The non-cap H1B can not be transferred to cap h1b. If i need a cap h1b
to work for the new employer, i have to apply a new one.
A2: That is correct.
Q3: If I can not transfer, can I work for the new company under these
conditions: 1.i still hold the h-1b exempt visa? |
