Hello everyone,
I am in a unique situation and need your urgent advice!
I have done my masters in Chemical engineering in the US. My OPT is already over. I have about 1 year of experience in computers and based on that I got a job in a software company(Company1).
Company1 has applied for my H1 and I have got RFE on how my education is
related to the job. Though my employer is confident that H1 will get approved, I am extremely worried about it.

Recently, I got another job in company2 which is also a software company but the position requires chemical engineering experience. Company2 is also willing to sponsor my H1. I feel that chances of getting approval from company2 H1 are good as they have employed several people with similar backgrounds as mine.

My question is can I apply for another H1 from Company2 while my H1 fom Company1 is pending? As I mentioned, my OPT is already over and I am staying in the US only because my H1 from Company1 is pending.

I would really appreciate any help. The lawyers are not giving me straight answers.

Thanks
patkt
