Transferred from Company A to Company B and received RFE. RFE response has been submitted but not sure if it will be approved or denied. Just want to be prepared if it gets denied:Company A have not revoked my H1B yet. Already running Paystub from company B. If the transfer gets denied, what will be my options? Can I still go back and work with Company A despite Company B already started running my Paystub? If it gets denied, can I apply for transfer H1B via Company C? Thank you.

Hopefully it will approves. Be positive downtown bro. I don't know whether you had filed TPS or not, but keep calm and be patience. IF you had filed TPS, then evenif you denied H1b, you can go ahead and get EAD from TPS and work for company B or any other company C. Can you please let me know what was your initial case number date, and RFE date? I believe it was from Vermont center. How long did it take to get RFE from them? Sorry to ask you so many questions, but I am in almost similar condition like you. I am also in same boat. Trying to transfer H1b from company A to B. THe reciept date was August 6th, and nothing yet as of now. I didn't get any RFE. It will be 210+ days by tomorrow. Not sure whether I will get RFE or not. Lets hope for the best. I was so stupid not to file TPS :(

@Kaliya: Mine was also around August I believe but it was taking too long. So, I changed it to PP. Yeah, my TPS is still pending and did not apply for EAD. So, I am not sure what are my options if it gets denied.

You should be good then. Like I said earlier you have other option to stay on TPS. I don't know that much about TPS, but it should help you to keep in the company that you are working on. Additionally, once you have EAD through TPS, you can request your company to apply GC and go from there. You have plethora of options. Do not panic, you will be good. On the other note, how long it take on you case to get RFE from the day of your initial application? I am trying to get some conclusion in my case too. Neither I get my approval nor RFE/denial. I am also confused like you.
