H1-B - Green Card question

[Sam B.]

At the time of applying for a Green Card or thereof is it required that the
applicant have an H1-B visa with the company that sponsors the green
card or are they completely unrelated issues?

any feedback is appreciated
ThankYou

No

The person does not even need to be in the US.
