But the only problem is, if you are already terminated, you shouldn't apply for a H-1B transfer. It would be like applying fresh, except you don't have to go through lottery. And also because this is a new visa, you are not qualified to work based on the H-1B portability rule either. So you have to wait until it is approved before you join the new company.
- hatred 10y agoI recall that there had been a new ruling (Jan 17) on this though limited to people with an approved I140 petition. This ensures that your petition remains valid and you are eligible for a transfer even if your existing employer withdraws your petition. That should hopefully provide some respite for people who were terminated. https://www.uscis.gov/news/news-releases/uscis-publishes-final-rule-certain-employment-based-immigrant-and-nonimmigrant-visa-programs https://www.uscis.gov/news/news-releases/uscis-publishes-fin...
