Wanted to know if anyone here on Blind has an experience with Corporate Immigration Partners (CIP) for their H1B transfer process.

I have been offered a job at NextRoll (non SWE) and the immigration lawyers reached out to me on 07/09 to upload all the documents on their portal. I filled the forms and uploaded all the required documents on the same day.

Wanted to know how would the H1B transfer timeline look like so that I can plan my move accordingly.

Current TC = $95,000
New TC = $225,000

    5-6 weeks from start to USCIS approval assuming they file with Premium Processing and there are not issues with the filing (e.g. RFE).

      No. We use Fragomen. But it shouldn’t matter from firm to firm. Those timelines should be pretty consistent across the board. It can actually be done quicker in a pinch.

    Congratulations on the new TC πŸ™Œ
    What timeframe did the immigration team give you? I was recently told by a recruiter that it’s taking 10-12 weeks for a complete transfer process.

      Thank you! They haven’t given me a timeframe - I’ll ask them in the coming week. My curiosity got the better of me hence this question on Blind haha!

      Also the 10-12 week timeframe is super steep. Probably common with Fragoman and the likes?
