#h1b
I recently accepted an offer and they started working on my H1B transfer. However, since my perm was filed to by my current employer, they advised me to wait till it’s approved. Ideally it should be approved by May. I told them to move ahead with filing they transfer to reduce the joining period once my perm is approved, however since then I have not heard back from attorneys. I feel it’s weird for them to not respond and at all, it has been over 5 days. Wondering what should I do.
Follow with them ? Contact recruiter ? I have no idea what’s going on.

2. Getting PERM approved without a i140 is not gonna make any difference. You will have to start your PERM again and get a new priority date without an approved I140. Try to get on a call with the attorney from new job and ask them this
When the attorney told me about i140 then I thought about it.
You should decide what Is your priority. You want to get a pd and fall under AC-21 to get unlimited extensions and transfers or join new employer with less than 3 years of h1 and start gc process.
Joining new employer without i140 is a risk if you ask me.
