    Default H1 B Visa Transfer

    Hi,

    I am on H1B visa (valid till dec 2006) and am currently working for employer A. Now sometime back i was talking to employer B and seeking employment with him and initiated my H1 B visa transfer to employer B. Now my H1 B has been transfered to employer B. Is it now possible that i donot move on with employer B and continue to work for employer A as employer A is giving me better projects/compensation.

    Will it be necessary for me to move on to employer B because my H1 B is transfered to employer B? Can i continue to work for employer A ? Is there any legal complication involved ? Do i have to ask employer A to get the H1B transfered again to him ? Is it really needed ? the employer A has no idea that i was negotiating with employer B and i don't want them to know now too. Is it still possible for me to work for employer A and just let employer B go ??

    Default H1 Transfer & Keeping Old Job

    You would ordinarily be able to keep your old job without going through another transfer, as long as you only work at one job. Check your I94 to make sure that it will remain valid.

    [Necessary caveat - to ensure that there is nothing exceptional about your situation which would cause your situation to differ from the norm, you should consult an immigration lawyer.]
