Re: H1b Transfer Fees
On your demand here I am telling you H-1B transfer is the process of having a new employer sponsoring for your H-1B visa so that you could work for that employer, and according to our sources new company is a Fortune 500 company, with thousands of employees in the USA The new employer has to pay the following filing fees for the H-1B transfer petition: $325, $500 & $1,500. The total fee for this H-1B transfer is $2,325. American Competitiveness and Workforce Improvement Act of 1998 (ACWIA) Fee: If 25 employees or more, then $1500; If Less than 25 employees, then $750 Fraud Prevention Fee: $500 Public Law 111-230 fee: According to this law, If the company has more than 50% H1B employees then they have to pay $2000 Premium Processing Fee: $1225 Fee for Different Scenarios: Scenario 1: Small company (less than 25 employees) Total Fee: $325 + $750 + $500 + Attorney Fees = $1575 + Attorney Fees If the employer wants to do it in premium processing, then add $1225 = $2800 + Attorney Fees Scenario 2: Large company (More than 25 employees) Total Fee: $325 + $1500 + $500 + Attorney Fees = $2325 + Attorney Fees If the employer wants to do it in premium processing, then add $1225 = $3550 + Attorney Fees H-1B Transfer Process: New Employer files I-129 petition with the USCIS requesting for the H-1B transfer process. USCIS processes your case and a decision is made. If USCIS approves the H-1B transfer, your present employer needs to be notified. Note that there is no necessity of getting a no objection certificate from the previous employer for the H-1B transfer. You can join and start working for the new employer any time after USCIS approves the H-1B transfer and you could work until the H-1B visa expiration date (as per your LCA). H-1B Transfer Processing Time: You could choose to apply for an H-1B visa transfer through regular processing or premium processing. H-1B Transfer ā Regular Processing generally takes from one to four months to have a decision made. H-1B Transfer ā Premium Processing would take around 15 to 30 days. |
