QUESTION

Asked on Feb 23rd, 2015 on Immigration - New York
More details to this question:
My employer is applying for a H1B on my behalf next April to transfer to USA as I work for their branch in Europe. If I quit my job after I get the H1B (while in Europe) do I lose my H1B if I leave my employer? Can I reactivate it a year later if I work for another USA based employer or is it completely lost and I have to go through the cap again?

If you leave your employer, you will lose your H1B. If you would be cap exempt next year depends on particular facts.
