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.
