Are people safe to change employers on an H-1B through a transfer after the 100k rule? My understanding is that this rule does not affect transfers or extensions

I transferred approx 6 weeks ago. And the $100k rule didn’t apply. I was in the US, in-status and it was to a similar job if that helps…

I sent an employee for their new H1B stamping and before returning to the US, provided an employment verification/invitation letter for his return. Had no problems. On another note, the 100k requirement does not apply to existing H1bs, which would include transfers. I had no issues in recent H1B transfers either. Hope this helps!
