Does it matter if I don’t meet the specific job requirements when transferring H1B? The job posted requires CPA license but I haven’t got it. The employer is still willing to hire me. I know for PERM process, meeting minimum requirements is important but not sure if H1B have such requirement. I heard that for H1B as long as it’s a position requiring bachelors degree and specifically occupation that should be fine. But kinda worried about this.

Anyone in the same boat?

It usually doesn’t create issues, but you never know with the visa officer assigned to your case. Sometimes they send RFE asking for CPA license, since your job does require it.

I’m looking through i129 form, seems like there is nowhere asking for the detailed job requirements. In this case, would the officer know that the job requires the CPA license? It’s just the requirements that employer put in the job application link.
