问点non profit h1b 转 profit h1b concurrent filling的问题

USCIS怎么知道你的profit H1B抽到还是没抽到呢？

Then what if a H-1B holder who worked for a cap-exempt employer and never subject to the cap in the past six years wants to port to a cap-subject employer? There are two situations regarding whether there is still any H-1B quota remained.

When there are H-1B visa numbers available, by virtue of portability rule, an employee can port from a cap-exempt employer to a cap-subject employer. However, be noted that under such circumstance, if the H-1B transfer petition is approved before October 1 of the fiscal year, the employee should stop working for the new employer at the time of approval and wait until October 1.

However, when the H-1B numerical limitation has been met for the fiscal year and an employee of a cap-exempt H-1B petitioner wishes to move to a cap-subject employer utilizing the H-1B portability to start work immediately at the new employer, an argument could be made that the H-1B petition filed by the new employer is frivolous and thus will be denied . USCIS also made it clear that it will only approve an H-1B petition filed under these circumstances if the beneficiary does not cease to be employed by the cap exempt petitioner. See USCIS Memorandum, D. Neufeld, “Supplemental Guidance Relating to Processing Forms I-140 Employment-Based Immigrant Petitions and I-129 H-1B Petitions, and Form I-485 Adjustment Applications Affected by the American Competitiveness in the Twenty-First Century Act of 2000 (AC21)” (May 30, 2008)

For instance, John is a university researcher (cap-exempted) and currently in H-1B status. He finds a new job in the private sector and his private employer will petition for an H-1B visa for John. John has never been counted against the H-1B quota when he was employed by an institution of higher learning. Therefore, if currently the H-1B quota is used up, he may not port to the new employer. However, if there are still any H-1B numbers available, he can enjoy the portability rule to transfer and start working for the new employer as long as the USCIS receive the transfer petition. However, he should also be noted if his transfer petition is approved before October 1 of the year, he should cease to work for the new employer at the time of approval and can only resume the work after October 1.

看来我也记的不太正确。首先最好在目前cap exempt的工作岗位辞职，不然新的cap H-1B可能会被拒。然后要看财政年名额有没有满，满了就洗洗回家睡了。没满就看cap H-1B批不批，批了立刻下岗待业等十月一号去工作。

所以必须要从cap-exempt的工作辞职吗？这样如果cap H1B没抽到签的话岂不是两边都没工作了，就只能回国了

Sorry, 这段来来回回的我也看晕了。

应该是不能丢掉cap exempt的工作。
可前面一句话又说，“已有cap exempt H-1B再由新的雇主申请一个H-1B是没有意义的”，移民局可以根据这个理由拒你。
感觉是听天由命啊

总结下：
首先要保留当前cap-exempt工作。
然后找到愿意给你办cap-subject H-1B的公司。如果还有quota名额，那么利用H-1B portability rule，理论上你就可以去新公司工作了。
最后等待这个transfer批准。但是批准后反而不能工作了，要等到10月1日财政年开始才能重新开始工作。

但是等待transfer批准期间，是否还要保持之前cap-exempt雇主的雇佣关系？谁来pay你？我也不太确定。照理来说应该是新雇主来pay你，毕竟你都过去工作了。可如果这时候transfer被拒绝了，应该就会发生两边都没工作只能回国的状况了。

这段话看得太绕了。。就这么个情况，假如抽到了profit的h1b，然后等着批，这时候可以去给new employer工作，然后批了反而还不能工作了。那如果一开始就不去给new employer工作呢，就在old employer工作，工作到十月份再去跟new employer工作（新公司愿意等的情况），这段话没说可以不

如果新公司愿意等，这应该是可以的。我之前也听人说过cap-exempt转cap-subject可行，就是愿意等的新公司太少。

如果不转，那就是要在这个坑里面待到绿卡才能出来？

所以要努力转，不然要被绑在一个公司七八年吗？总会有一个机会可以转的，我这么自我安慰哈哈

你抽不到怎么办
