Hi,

I am on H1B visa & had signed a contract with my previous company that if I leave them within a year, I'll have to pay them my H1B visa fees. I left them and got my H1B transferred to another company within a year and now they are asking me to pay the amount. Are they legally correct because I know that the H1B fee is an employer fee? Do I have to pay them? If I don't, can they take a legal action against me?
 
The company has to pay the mandatory government fees, but maybe they want you to pay the legal fees, which are not required to be paid by the company. Check with a lawyer.
