I worked for large IT company based in India who sent me on H-1 for short-durations to the US whenever a project need was there.
The last I was in the US was Sept-Nov 2002. I was on the US payroll of my company during this period and hence have a W-2 for 2002.
I do not have any paystubs after Nov 2002.
In July 2003, I quit my company, went to the US consulate in Chennai, had my H-1 visa in the passport cancelled and got an H-4 to join my spouse in the US.
The original H-1 approval notice is valid till Apr'04.
Currently, I have a job offer from a US based company. They are willing to do my H-1.
Question:
Is it still possible for an H-1 transfer in my case and to make use of the H-1 portability provision to join the new company right away?
