Attorney Sir,
After reading the following , Please let me know if I need consultation
A liitle about me : MS graduate , working on OPT
Here is my situation.
On April 1 2008,
Company C1 applied my H1B , Change of Status from F1 to H1B , Regular Quota
Company C2 applied my H1B, Consulate Processing, Regular Quota
Regarding C1 :
-I have been working with C1 since 2 years now and I have all the pay checks
-C1 received RFE in July 2008 and RFE replied within 2 weeks, Case Pending
-C1 applied for Premium processing on Jan 15 after long wait of pending
-3 LUDs on 3 consecutive days in the last week.
- Case still Pending
Regarding C2 :
- H1B applied on Consulate Processing, So basically it means I need to get it stamped to start my H1B
- I dont have any paychecks with C2
- C2 H1B approved in August , after RFE
- Twist : Employer received only Employer copy of H1B approval and not the copy that is given to the candidate.
- I have the scanned copy of Approval, that Employer received.
- In October 2nd week, C2 applied for "I824, APPLICATION FOR ACTION ON AN APPROVED APPLICATION OR PETITION" to get the candidate approval copy.
- I could not go for stamping because of that to start my H1B.
- So basically waiting on that
Current Situation
Company C3, reputed Software Company
- offered me a job
- I have OPT to work with them.
- But I also want one of my H1B to be transferred... I dont know how to do that
- If the H1 transfer is not possible, I must ask them to wait till april to apply new one , which is not possible.
I am looking for a solution, on how to handle this
Q1) Will I be able to transfer my approved H1B from C2 to C3 ,
Q2) Will C3 be able to apply COS for H1B transfer from C2 to C3 and change my status from F1 to H1B
Q3) I cannot get paychecks from C3 because I never worked with them, and moreover it is Consulate Processing H1B, so it is not required to have Paystubs before getting stamped.
Q4) Shall I wait and see what happens to my C1 Premium Processing?
Q5) Ultimately : What is the best solution to handle this?
