Hi All,
So I recently received an offer from amazon. I am on stem opt right now and my company has filed for my H1b this year. If my application gets picked this year how soon can i transfer/shift ? Do i have to wait till oct 1st or can i do it earlier? (Heard conflicting reviews on this)Does anyone have any experience with this? Will amazon wait for 6 months or does the offer generally gets revoked?
TC:141k

H1B transfer only happens after you're on h1b status (after sep 30)
Didn't think Amazon would've waited until then with my offer so took a leap of faith and took Amazon. Got h1b selected next year under Amazon
I knew worst case Amazon would transfer me to Canada or India then come back to the US on L1
Also there's the opportunity cost of earning faang salary. In my case the difference was huge and in one year paid off my student debt and got my parents an upscale house for their retirement life with the extra disposable income I got. So again I got lucky yes but also had backups and it was the best decision for me
