Hi I have a h1b visa starting on October 1. If the company lay me off before the start date, will I be able to transfer the h1b visa to another company? There is a requirement of two pay stubs to transfer to another. DO those pay stubs be after that of October 1? Or will the paystubs from before also work? is there any limited time to get the job from the start date oct 1? Any information on this will be highly appreciated. Thanking you NYorker

To my understanding, you need to have two paystubs from the comapny who initially filed your H1B. So it's better to hang out with that company till october end and getting two pay stubs.

Once your H1 status starts with a company and then they fire you, I guess you have 30 days to find another job.

I had a friend of mine, who was laid off in May while his H1 was to start only in October. Although he got a new job [under CPT] in May itslef, he had to work on the new job as a consultant from the older company in October for a month to get two paystubs from the older one, later he transferred the H1 to new employer.

Both were Desi companies, so eth was okay.

Thanks for the  information.

Then do you think paystubs of old companies are required for the transfer?

I asked a lawyer and he told me that paystubs are not clearly written as the requirements for h1 transfer.You can transfer withthout the paystubs too. the thing is that one has to be in a good legal status.

Since I have OPT till december 6, I hope its fine, right?? any one has any suggestions please.

 

Does any body know what is the process for the transfer? Do u have to repeat the whole process of h1b?

Does the new employer file the Labor certification? it could be done electronically too, right?

 

Thanks
