Travel during H1B visa transfer. I'm switching jobs and I want to go to India before I start my new job. Wondering if H1B visa transfer can cause any pain because I'm out of country. Am I likely to need a new stamp?

If you have a valid stamp, you’re golden for re-entry

Don’t need a new stamp. The only painful situation I can envision is that you’ve already quit your old employer and the transfer to new employer gets rejected while you’re abroad. In that case, your stamp stands invalid for entry.

If you are in India when your transfer is in process, you may have to apply for consular notification during the H1B transfer

My original H1B was with consular notification. Thanks for pointing that out, will raise it with the immigration team

How should I go about preparing for it? Is MBA the only course?
My current tech stack is Python, Pyspark, Hive, SQL, ML, DL(specifically NLP based). I have already done MS in CS from IIT Kgp.
I am confused mainly cause the tech stack requirement is similar to my role in the company.
