    Default H1B Travel Limits

    Hi I'm Noel and very soon I will be goingto the US with H1B Visa. I would like to ask if there is some restriction for me to travel back and forth to my home country while in holding a H1B Visa. Also, how about travelling to other country outside the US?

    If you continue to work so as to qualify for the H-1B visa, travel shouldn't be an issue.

    I'm an H1B holder working in a Florida company, I've been offered a promotion to a "Field Service" position, which implies travel domestic and overseas (mexico and england) approx 60% of the time; the company lawyer affirms that so much business travel would be an issue holding the H1B visa which originally was approved for an office position. What is your opinion?

    In my opinion, you should always follow the advice of your lawyer over what you might read in an online forum. And, of course, you should heed the words of the USCIS:
    Quote Quoting Who can an H-1B alien work for?
    H-1B aliens may only work for the petitioning U.S. employer and only in the H-1B activities described in the petition. The petitioning U.S. employer may place the H-1B worker on the worksite of another employer if all applicable rules (e.g., Department of Labor rules) are followed. H-1B aliens may work for more than one U.S. employer, but must have a Form I-129 petition approved by each employer.

    Your situation is markedly different from that of the original poster.
