Microsoft H1b transfer timelines

Jan 21 23 Comments

Anyone here knows the Microsoft H1B transfer timelines.. submitted all my docs and questionnaire on 01/10 and they said they are preparing for filing on 01/14. I also sent them my last 3 pay slips on 01/14.... any idea how long it takes to file the petition?

      Congrats…what about the next steps? Is there anything you will have to wait for ? Or already you have accepted the start date ?

    • Next steps: verify I9 with their authorized third party provider which will take a week. Then set start date with HM and then resign from current firm

      Great. Thanks for the follow up..looks like it takes close to two weeks after the paystubs are uploaded. Please keep us posted once it is approved. Do you plan on giving notice before the approval ?

    • Nope... I will wait for approval and I9 verification (during this time I hope I get the hard copy of my I797A) and then resign. My HM will hopefully understand

    Hey OP. Did the recruiter contact you to confirm start date after filing the petition? Did they contact you immediately for that? How about I9? Thanks in advance!

      I see, thank you! The AskHR didn't reach out to me after filing the petition. Kind of anxious right now...

    • Might just be that they OOO or something. Email them and ask what are the next steps.

    Hi did you go through the DREC review? How long does it take for you to clear that part?

      No. It is a review to determine whether you need a export license or not from the DREC team.

      Well, I don't know what that is... and so, I assume I did not have to go through that process. I would assume I don't need an export license?!
