H1 B Transfer during Extension

There would likely not be too much of a problem with the H-1B transfer so long as the H-1B extension and the H-1B transfer are both approvable cases. However, if you wish to be cautious, you can wait until the time that the H-1B transfer by company B is adjudicated. It should be quick since the petition is under premium processing, which means that U.S.C.I.S. will reach the case within 15 days. At the time of adjudication, U.S.C.I.S. will also give a decision on whether to grant you an extension in the United States. In the event that you decide not to take company B’s job, you can always ask the company to withdraw the H-1B and cancel the approval.
