I need your advise before initiating H1B transfer. Presently Am working in India and till date I haven't traveled to USA.
My current employer A has filled for H1B petition April 2012 and I have appeared for Visa Interview at US consulate in India and got my visa on Nov 2012 with validity till June 2015.Due to some adhoc reasons my current employer is not willing to send me to client site till December 2013.
Meanwhile I have come across a new employer B whose offer is very encouraging and also offered to transfer my H1B.
Am curious to know whether traveling with this visa does cause any problem at port of entry. Or do I need to go for visa stamping again.
Need your clarification on below things.
I do have H-1B visa stamp in passport from my current employer A. Can I use the same H-1B visa stamp to travel without obtaining a new H-1B visa?
Does traveling with existing H1B visa cause any problem at Port of Entry.
Can I travel with H1B visa of Employer A along with my approved petition of employer B.
Do I need to reappear for Visa interview at US consulate in India with new petition filed by Employer B.
Just in case if I need to reappear for Visa interview and it gets denied what would be the status of visa/Petition obtained from Employer A.
Thanks,
Sai
