I was terminated from my job on June 12, with employer A. They also mentioned my H1B will be revoked in 30 days, which makes it exactly 4 weeks from June 12. I started looking for jobs, and possibly I will get one of offers next week from Employer B, and one more from Employer C the week after. That is, in the third week from Employer B and fourth week from Employer C. I will ask them to apply for a H1B transfer immediately. Both A & C are reputed companies and it is full time, B is also reputed but pretty small.
I have a few questions.
-
Should I go to a consulting company and ask them to process my visa as soon as possible? Will that go into RFE by any chance?
-
If Employer C, is well reputed, will the out of status be overlooked? If not, will such reputed companies like Employer C, not help me in such cases?
-
If I go to a Consultancy, and the Consultancy applies for a H1B transfer first, will that affect my other H1B transfer applications from Employers B & C?
-
I have to travel to india after the first week of August, for a lifetime thing. So, if there is an RFE, can I not travel to India while the RFE is sent and being processed?
-
Should I travel to India after the fourth week, and let the Employers B & C to process the H1B transfer after I leave the country, so I can return after the H1B processing completes successfully? This will make sure I don’t stay out of status for long, in this country. How much risk is it?
Super complicated. Any help is greatly appreciated.
