travelling to INDIA during H1 Transfer

[bombay247]

I am working for Emp A and got transfered to Emp B last week. I would be going to INDIA this week.

I have the Fed Ex receipt that USCIS has received my application and a proof that the cheque got cleared...

Is it safe to travel without original I-797 of Emp B...
and what precautions/documents would I have to take...
Thanks!

Do you have a valid H-1B stamped in your passport ?
If yes then there is no problem.
At the POE they will ask you if you are still working for the same employer. you can state that you have left employemnet and have filed for an H-1. Since you are not subject to cap that is not an issue.

The only issue that I see is if your H-1 with Employer B gets approved while you are out of the country
