yoe: 2 yrs in US

    U have decided to move on to the new company. What's holding you back from the basic etiquette of letting ur current company know ?
    U plan to leave cold and dry and burn bridges ?
    Let ur manager know, start a plan to transfer your work and leave on a good note.

      @Dell, not sure how u inferred that?🤷🏻‍♂️ I never left any company with a bitter taste. Well atleast I have always had amazing managers and team members so I feel it's my responsibility or basic etiquette to make sure I don't leave them high and dry.
      U look like a person who has never been happy at a job and have vile relationship with ur management and team members.

      @fuzzy22, do u mean for ur receipt or the actual i797. U do realize that it takes for ever these days right ?
      Point here is, inform your company whenever, just make sure u have atleast 2 weeks between notifying ur old company and moving to your new one.
      That 2 weeks should be good to help management move things around in your absence and also plan your KT sessions.
      What's wrong with that?

    Ask new employer to file your h1b transfer petition in premium processing. Don't tell your manager or resign from current job until you receive approval on the h1b transfer(just to avoid risks). Even though you're eligible to join new company right after they file for transfer.

    Joining on H1B receipt has little risk, assuming new company is applying on premium, wait for 2 weeks until approval. Give enough notice (at least 7 days) for handover and accordingly set right expectation of joining with with new company.
    No, USCIS doesn’t notify anyone other that you and your immigration lawyer.

  • Once h1b transfer is complete, file in premium.
