H1B question: My first 3 years of H1B visa will expire in September next year. When do companies file for extension (like how many months before do they start the process) OR When should I reach out to the HR and ask the same question to them?

You can reach out to them and check. I did so at deloitte and was told I’ll be contacted by the team and was contacted around 7-8 months out before expiration.

To the ‘Manager’ who laughed at this post - care to share what’s funny here so that everyone can laugh?

Same here. My extension is due 8/22 and they said 7 months before expiration

In general it's good to reach out 7-8 months before the expiration. They cannot apply for it more than 6 months in advance.

Great - thank you!

Perfect - thanks both of you! Also, do you know how long does it take to get the approval (assuming you don’t receive an RFE)?

Seeking immigration / travel advise. I know we are not lawyers but any experiences / stories would be helpful.

Can I enter the US when I have H1B change of employer petition approved but employed with my current company and serving notice period? Which company’s I-797 form do I show immigration? Do I tell them about switching jobs, etc.?

My new company lawyers are not providing clear guidance on this and suggesting against travel due to COVID in general. Thank you.

I also have a local credit union checking/savings that I'd use if I need any services or to deposit cash and a HYSA that gets my paycheck, is used for mortgage and credit card payments, and to transfer to checking or investments.

Guys - If I am going for a h1b first time stamping interview, what do I answer if i am asked "Do you work for an end client?" I do not have any client letter or any document to show the interviewer. any guidance will be super helpful please.
