I was speaking to my bro-in-law and getting some confused messages about
H1-B visas. Although he did originally get his visa in 2001.
Apparently he started work as soon as his company filed an H1-B application
for him and then left the country a few months later to get the visa
stamped. I didnt think it was possible to work until you have the visa?
Secondly, he says that nowadays if you move comapny, they have to apply for
a new H1-B visa and you have to leave the company tp get it stamped - I
thought you just need to get a transfer?
Finally, he said that he had heard cases where people left the country to
get a new H1 and were not allowed back in because their application for a
green card was considered to be proof that they lied on their H1 application
i.e. they had prior intent on staying in the US.
Can anyone please advise if any of the above comments are true?
