I am on an H1B. I resigned from my previous employer (after I got my H1B Transfer receipt notice I797B) and joined the new employer next day.
While filling up the new hire documents I am stuck at I9 form where I797 is not available as a proof of employment eligibility. It has one option of using I-94, but my current I94 will be expiring very soon (from previous employer) and I believe the new I-94 will come only after the Transfer is approved.
Please help regarding if I can use the old form itself, or how did other folks managed it. Any pointers I can show to my current employer. It's extremely important as this info. is required for payroll.
Thanks a ton.
