Hi,

I accepted an offer from another company and applied for h1b transfer.

My h1b transfer petition was submitted on 15th May so I calculated that worst case my h1b transfer will be approved in 15 days (premium processing) and then 2 week courtesy notice, so I gave my start date as 14th June.

But my H1b got approved today, now I am thinking which one is a better option to give my notice. Please help by selecting the appropriate option and give any details for tha choice.

PS:

If going with option 3, not sure if those 7 days are counted as unemployed days, or out of status or any other weird thing.

If going with option 2, Benefits of giving 3 week notice is showing more courtesy, giving extra time for formalities( 401k transfer etc stuff), coming Tuesday is spring planning so they will plan accordingly.

While you answer, may be keep this also in mind that I have an interview scheduled with Google around 14th June ( 45 mins telephone round), so I would love to pick the option which gives me little time to dedicate on my preparation

Thanks. Any help and suggestions are appreciated
