Hi Teamblind
I recently got an offer that i don’t want to miss, but I applied to h1b with my company, can I transfer my h1b to the other company after april? Or do I have to wait until october?

Do you recommend me to withdraw the h1b ( if possible and go to the other company , i have 2 more years to apply for h1b )

Any experience would be really helpful.

    Change after October if h1b is picked .
    I didn’t get h1b in 3 lottery attempts.

    If new company is good, their immigration team should agree on this.

    Please do not withdraw h1b. I was in a similar situation last year where I asked my previous company to withdraw h1b so that I can join my dream company. My previous company has applied for withdrawal before Oct 1st. On October 1st, my SEVP portal automatically (USCIS mistake) got changed to “change of status approved” and I lost my F1 status. To fix this mistake, my DSO needs withdrawal receipt from USCIS. I’ve been waiting for it since 8 months. I can’t apply for stem opt extension without the data fix. This means I’ll have to leave US very soon.

      What if I changed status to stem opt before changing the company?
