Expired H1-B Transfer in India

USA H1B Visa
1

Hi,

I had got my H1B visa stamped from a company X for a period of 2.5 Yrs. Now it got expired last week. Now I am getting an offer from a company Y, where they are looking for people to send to US to work on their client projects.

Is it possible to get my previous H1-B visa (Validity Expired) transferred to the new employers name? If yes, what is the procedure. Do the new employer ‘Y’ have to file a new application? Will it be counted into the H1-B annual cap?

Thanks in advance…awaiting for your respone.

Thanks,

Rakesh

Your new employer can transfer your expired H1B Petition directly. No need of new petition. He will be filling an extention and a conversion. Please submit all the prior approval related documents to your new employer…It will take 2 to 4 months to get approved.

Thanks
