H1B Transfer question

js07

Registered Users (C)
When exactly can an individual, who applied for H1B Transfer, can start working for the new company. Is it soon after the application reaches USCIS office or only after getting a receipt number? Can anybody provide some documentation/url from USCIS site on this?

Thanks
