when I transfer H1B, do I have to submit all prior year I-797 approval notices ? I applied for OPT several years ago after undergraduate. Now I can only find my EAD card but not I-797 approval notices.

I think the lawyers ask for it but you can tell them if you don’t have yours- I don’t believe it actually goes into the uscis filing package so you might be fine. As a side note- keep everything!! US immigration is a horror until you get at least a green card or ultimately get citizenship (if you’re interested in that) and they’ll ask you for your entire life history in applications lol

The law firm will ask for it. You should be able to find a soft copy of the approval notice on your company's immigration portal.

Hi Fishes,

My last working date with TCS is on 4th March 2022 and now they are offering me 80% hike and Canada onsite opportunity and telling that will initiate visa as soon as I take resignation back and also ready to provide written confirmation. On the other hand I have an offer from IBM of 120% hike fixed and performance bonus would be there which I am not considering now.

Which one would be better? please suggest based on your knowledge and experience.
