In October 2000, former President Clinton signed the American
Competitiveness in the Twenty-First Century Act (AC21). One of the most
sought after provisions in AC21 is the “portability” provision, which
eases the process of changing jobs.
Under AC21, H-1B workers can begin working for a new employer as soon as the
new employer files an H-1B petition for the worker with USCIS.
The regulations define “filing” as having been physically received by
USCIS.
Qualifying workers for whom a petition was filed can begin work for the new
employer immediately upon USCIS receiving the H-1B petition.
The primary limitation on this portability provision is that the new
employer must have filed a “non-frivolous” petition, which is one with
some basis in law and fact.
To take advantage of the AC21 portability provision, the worker must either
be in H-1B status, or be in another non-immigrant status (F-1, B-2, H-4, etc
) and have previously been in H-1B status and not left the US for over 12
months.
The worker must not have engaged in unauthorized employment since admission
to the US.
Employers should follow current I-9 documentation procedures, as well as
keeping a copy of the worker’s I-94 and a copy of the receipt notice for
the new H-1B petition. | h**z 发帖数: 9751 | 2 To take advantage of the AC21 portability provision, the worker must either

前面有人说H1B转H1B,receipt就可以上班;H1B转H4/F2再转H1B,必须批准才能上班。
其实是根据H1B Portability,只要曾经有H1B,就可以不等批准就可以上班了! | i***y 发帖数: 285 | 3 smile when seeing the subject:)

俺仔细看了一下
你说的应该是正确的
如果H1B转F2/H4批准后再申请H1B看来是可以适用AC21的H1B portability
很多情况下是F2/H4还在Pending应该就不行
不过似乎很多律师对此也不是很清楚
而且这个律师也说了
There can be some issues in such transfers, so it is important to make sure
your transfer is properly done before you start working for the new employer
. If you are not positive that the “H-1B portability” provision is
applicable to your H-1B transfer to your new H-1B employer, it is safest
either to consult competent immigration counsel or to simply wait for the
new H-1B petition to be approved before starting to work with the new H-1B
employer.
所以保险起见
还是等新H1B批准了再上班吧
加急的话不也就15天的事儿
要知道现在连H1B transfer都有被拒的
