Hi All,
My husband got laid off today due to an acquisition and HR told that he has 60 days to find another job.
Fortunately, his H1B transfer was in progress and today got his receipt number from premium processing from California USCIS.
He wants to start immediately but we are hell scared to join before approval. His current H1B would be anyway revoked.
He has two interviews next week.
I would appreciate if anybody from a similar experience share their thoughts?
P.S. I am on H1B. PERM started few months back, so I-140 yet not approved.
Thank you.

If you don’t want to join due to other interviews, that’s a different story. How did you convince this employer to start the H1B transfer without signing an offer though? Is this negotiable nowadays? Or your husband plans to renege?
He can start immediately . I went through the same and had to consult Immigration lawyers if I could start immediately and they said yes.
I have not had any issuesand got my H1B renewed 2 times after.
