Category : US H1B related query for a peculiar scenario

I was working for a company ABC . First I got B1 visa from them and I traveled to US twice on that.

Then ABC's US Head branch sponsored me H1B and I got through the lottery. But before I travel to US, they were financially ruined as a result I was not let to travel to US on H1B.

Then I resigned from ABC as I got a new opportunity in XYZ company in india itself.

I would still like to go to US.

I have a few queries regarding this.

1) Whether my both visas are valid?

2) What are the possibilities to exploit my current H1B?
Can I still travel on that and get it transferred to new employer if somebody sponsors me?

3) I do not have any pay stubs but I posses I-797 from the previous employer. What are the legal complications with transfer?

4) Would I have to file a new H1B? Will that fall under cap quota?

5) Can my current employer XYZ get it transfered here itself, if yes how?

Regards

You can apply for a new H1B through a different company and you won't be subject to the quota.
