Can I move to a new company after H1B Stamping?

Hi,

I work for Company “ABC”. ABC sponsored my H1 Visa.

Month/Year of Application: Dec 2012

Month/Year of Petition Approval: July 2013

Month/Year of Visa Stamping: Feb 2014

My Project Manager is not giving me an Onshore Assignment. I’ve been asking & waiting for almost a year. Till now, he hasn’t got me a Role. And it doesn’t look like he is going to get me a role in near future.

The problem is, My H1 Petition & Visa Validity is until Nov 2015. And my manager is not releasing me from my project. So I’ve decided to move out of ABC.

Query:

Can I shift to a new company XYZ, when I have a Visa sponsored by ABC?

If I get selected in another company “XYZ” and raise an Exit from ABC, will I face any legal issues?

Will my H1B VISA remain valid in spite of moving out of my Sponsor company?

What other issues will I face in this process and is there any possible solution?

Thanks a lot for your time!
