My employer A petition is valid until Oct 2021, I have filed for H1 transfer to Employer B on January 2nd 2020 and I have moved to work with them on receipt notice on January 27th 2020. I have received denial on March 5th due to Speciality occupation (Ms in Non-CS with 6+ years of experience provided). My employer A has submitted application to revoke. What are the next steps suggested ? Please Help Thanks #h1b #rfe #transfer
You need to submit another request for a fresh cap exempt h1b from employer B ASAP. Since your employer A has filed for revocation you will be out of status as soon as that gets processed.
Wish all the best to u, bro
Goodluck man, hope you’re able to figure something out :)
Why did you move with out confirmation? It’s very risky now days already.
That's a ship that's already sailed. No point beating a dead horse.
What is employer B saying? Are they willing to refile
Phe - if the major is related to the job , why do MS CS get RFE for SWE role ? Any idea ?
Hi there, did you also get an rfe? I had got even though my major was related to the job, the reason was proving the job is complex enough to be classified as a specialty occupation.
I haven’t yet . But scared. I wonder why did they say SWE isn’t complex . My friend SWE in FB didn’t get one
try refile. there has been cases where refiling the same petetition got approved, probably even quicker if directly refiling than replying rfe
Maybe you should also point your lawyer to the new court case decision that came about specialty occupation - which practically considers whole of engineering degree as a valid specialty occupation. Maybe I am writing it broadly but worth a look

1. Ask B to refile 2. Start applying to start-ups that are willing to sponsor your Visa. They typically are fast in submitting docs within your grace period.
What was the reason for denial?
Haven't got the denial letter yet. RFE was for speciality occupation,
Was your major related to the job applied?
