I am changing employers. I currently am on H1-B. Do I have to wait till I get approval of the new H1-B to start new employment? Can I start new employment before approval?

bajara, depends on ur lawyer and employer. In my case (Prem. P during transfer), i started after filing it. But then my lawyer had to give the 'green signal' to the employer. Usually, I have seen people starting with 'receipt Notice'. But then, its always safe to wait until approval. Ask ur lawyer, ask ur employer, and If they are OK, go for it. Do not wait until approval. Also, this is the slowest season for H1-B case, so you might get results within a month at the max. Last edited: 07-Dec-12 04:49 PM
