Q29 Should I apply for GC together with the H-1B, or after I get the H-1B?
A29 You can apply for GC with H-1B but it is advisable to wait for about 3-6 months after you get H-1B to apply for GC.

Chat User : Can I transfer my H1B visa and apply for GC at the same time?
Attorney Murthy : Yes, that is legally permissible and done quite often. As mentioned earlier, one can file the GC with an employer that the person has never worked with before since the GC is based on a future job offer and the H1B is for present employment. So, one may certainly file the GC and H1B transfer or extension together or even the GC before the H1B filing is legal.
