I got the offer in August from Amazon and guess what, I'm still stuck at Microsoft. My H1B Visa transfer is handled by Fragomen. They didn't file I140 approval, so got the RFE. That's all fine, but it seems like they are going to file tomorrow and expected response is by 27th December. And if I give notice of 2 weeks at Microsoft then expected date to join Amazon is January 16. I have over 240 hours of vacation left and I can only keep 120 hours of vacation. I was hoping to join somewhere before the end of the year. Shall I take the Visa transfer risk and resign early? Or the day o get my Visa I can tell them I'm going to a competitor and get walked out. In either case, will I get my holiday cashed out? I can't really use all the expiring vacation.
Don’t take the risk . Only after approval join amazon
