Can I file an H1B change of employer while I have an H1B amendment pending? To do this, would I need to share the amendment receipt notice with the new employer?

Answer

In general, one in this situation should be able to transfer to a different employer, assuming the current I-94 has not expired. The receipt notice for the amendment should not be relevant in this situation. That being said, this is a complicated question; it typically would be best to consult with an attorney to determine whether this is likely to cause any complications. (14.Nov.2016)
