My new employer is going to file for an h1 transfer around April 20. My current employer just filed my H1b amendment/extension and got it approved starting April 10th. I haven't received my new I797 yet. Will my new employer attorney need this recently approved I797. Or can he still apply the transfer with the previous I797 I gave him, this old I797 is valid until Aug 2019.
How long did your extension take if you don’t mind me asking..did you do premium processing?
7 days in premium processing.. Clock starts once you receive receipt
I never got my H1b transferred till this date. But, with premium processing and fragomen as an immigration attorney firm (guessing you are joining Amazon), it takes about 4-5 weeks to get approval.
The number of i797 in this post is damn too high.
Yes, your new employee attorney should have all approvals copy. He should ask in first place.
