H1b visa transfer @Linkedin

My current role is Technical/Project Lead and I got a Senior Software Engineer role at LinkedIn. I got a bachelors and masters degree in computer science ( outside US ). Can this lead to RFE fr visa transfer as per the new role ? I have visa valid till next year, can i travel outside the country while my h1b transfer is initaited and return back in weeks time ? Can someone help me in knowing the average timeline of visa transfer in premium processing at Linkedin, and success rate. Thanks

Took me about 3 months with premium processing, and from experience, everything right now requires RFE. I've done RFE twice in a span of 8 months, first time was H1B, second was the H1B transfer. Got approved both times. Between me and 2 other colleagues, none of our RFE's were rejected.

Comment Checks out. In the same boat. RFE processing takes time. Plan accordingly OP

Since you tagged Visa, you should tag MasterCard and Discover too.
