H1b Transfer Very URGENT Please... Gurus

[sarvalokesh]

Hi Great Guru or any other Guru's,

I got H1b approval recently which starts from October 1st 2005 through Company A (Its not a consulting company). Today I got another offer from Company B (This is also not a consulting company). Company B, its an Multinational Company I want to transfer my h1b to Company B. Company B is ready to hire me. But the problem is Company B does not know about H1b or any other visa processing. I told company B that I will pay for my visa and prepare other documents. Company B ask me to contact HR Department. What should I say to HR Department? How should I explain this to HR Department. HR Department told me that they don't sponsor. They might be thinking if they sponsor they will have to pay for my visa and other things and moreover Company B never did H1b before. Term "Sponsor" and Transfer" make any difference? Should I say its a transfer instead of sponsor cause I am going to do all the visa processing.

Company B asked me to come on Monday to discuss this issue. I have to explain to the company properly so that they can understand. I don't want to miss this opportunity this is my big offer.

One more question.

I did not start working for Compnay A. It's starts from October 1st. Can I still do H1b transfer to company B immideately. Is this possible without the pay stubs?

Please someone advice me on this ASAP.

Thanks,
Lokesh.

Hi Great Guru,. Lokesh,

Request your comments regardingthe queries i am coming.

Mine is a fresh h1B and it got approved recently(sep 1st,2005).
Presently my employer is having my h1 approved papers with him.

I am in usa on b1/b2 visa for 3 months.(aug - oct ,2005)

I contacted my employer about changing the status

Can i change the status from b1 to h1 , He said that you have to go to india and get the stamping done there and come back.

I also asked him to mention about my spouse, children in the offer letter so that i can take my spouse, kid to consulate when i will be going for h1 visa interview.

a) Is that offer letter only required to mention about my dependants name (spouse & kid) ., or any other documents are also required to mention the names..please list those documents if any body has gone through the same process what i am currently going thru.

b)I Will be returning to india by october 25th,2005 since my i-94 is expiring on that day. after that i need to apply for h1b visa appoint along for my spouse , kid.

My spouse is having her passport but my name ,kid's nameis not yet included in that. since she has applied before marriage.

1)Is it compulsory that my name, kids name shld be present in her pp

and then in that case my passport shld als be updated to have my spouse name & my kid's name.

Awaiting your valuable comments on this query,


2) Is it compulsory that my kid should have a passport.
since he is 9months old. if yes then i have to take both for h4 interview at consulate ,

if so , i need to apply for a passport first ,get that pp and

then only i can book the appointment for 3 members.(one for my h1b, h4 for my spouse & kid).

please correct me if i am wrong in the above stuff.

Awaiting your valuable comments on this query,


3) one important thing to know is

1) what are all the documents needed for h1b visa before going to the chennai consulate for an interview.

2) what are all the documents required for h4 visa for my spouse & kid before going to chennai cosulate for an interview.,

I am planning to book an appoint in feb,2005 for h1 & h4 ,

on the same day since i can take my spouse & kid along with me to the consulate for the interview.

4)One more query is .. Coming to web appointment

1)I need to fill h1b appointment thru online and
there it asks for number of applicants..(i can mention 3 ... myself,spouse & kid).

now question is - i will fill my details for h1 ,

where should i fill my spouse details for h4 visa and the same for my kid ?
