    Question H1 Transfer While on Opt

    Hello,

    Company A has filed an H1 for me through premium processing. Now I have a better opportunity through company B. So is it possible for me to go ahead with company B? Will the company B have to file a totally new h1 petition for me or will it be a h1 transfer? I am currently on OPT and it ends july 11. H1 is effective from October 2010. Any inputs on if it is possible are appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Default Re: H1 Transfer While on Opt

    "Transfer only applies when you are in that same status.

    If you have an H1B I-94 for Oct 2010, you will no longer be on OPT as of that date; you need to be working for the sponsor from whom you have an approval notice.
