H1B Transfer RFE (Initial Evidence)
Jan 21
19 Comments
Hi Everyone,
I am in a bit of a situation. I recently got a job offer from Cis.. in December last year and my H1B Transfer was filed on the 10th of January. However, on the 19th I received an RFE.
I haven't joined on receipt but I have ended my lease here in NYC and have already sent all my stuff to Bay Area. My role has changed from "User Interface Developer" to "Data Analyst".
I hold a Master's in Data Analytics from the US. The law firm is F and they haven't updated anything about RFE asking for 8 to 10 weeks' time for response.
What should I do? Should I join on receipt notice? Coz if I move to CA then I lose my current NYC-based client. Any thoughts?

2/04 - Response Recevied for RFE
2/15- Approval Received
All I know about my RFE; is the reason was employment/tax verification. Just provided some pay slips and W2s.
Alternatively, you can decide to wait 2-3 months, but then you risk them retracing the offer if RFE gets rejected. Depends how bad you want the new job.
