Hi,
Iam currently on L1B (with family on L2) with company A. Company B has agreed to process my H1B for 2008. My

Criteria is that I have to go back to company A in india to get my relieving letter from company A. So I want the

Flexibillity of going back to india for a month and come back with the new H1B visa.

1) WHich is better for my situation, A H1B transfer or new H1B. But company B says that it will do a H1B transfer.

What are the pros and cons of a L1B to H1B transfer and applying a new H1B.
2) If company B do a H1B transfer, can I continue to work for company A on my current L1B even after October 1,

2008?
3) Can I travel to India (before or after October 1, 2008) and remain in India for 1 or 2 months?
4) Can I come back to US in November on new H1 Visa by getting stamped in India?
Thanks. Raj J.
