I was working for Company A on H1B, and then moved to Company B. I have been working here for a few weeks, and now have an offer from Company C. I understand that I am allowed to change to the new employer, but will this create problems for me in the future with USCIS?

Answer

There are no immigration rules that prohibit how often a person in H1B status may move between employers. As long as the individual can demonstrate that valid status etc, was maintained, the mere fact that the person moved through multiple employers normally would have no negative immigration consequences.
