Default Can a person get stamped two H1B on his passport. Pls advice me on this.

Dear Friends,

My friend is working in One of TOP IT companies in india. The company
has sponsered H1 for him and H1 visa got stamped on his passport. Since
he is a critical resource in the project company is not releasing him
from the project. It seems for another 1yr he has to be in the project
only.

He is planning to file H1B through a consultancy. Once he get H1
through someother consultancy he has planned to resign his job from the
current company and fly to US.

The question is. He has already stamped H1 on his passport, and the
company is not in a position to send him to US. can he file H1 through
consultancy ???. If he does so, during consulate interview they can
view his H1 visa stamped on his passport, so will they ask any question
regarding the previous H1 ???? will it cause him any problem. ??? . Pls
advice me on this. He is in big confusion.

Thanks a lot.

Siv.

Yes, as many employers can file for H-1B for him as wish to.

He's already got an H-1B visa, so he doesn't need to visit the
consulate again.

The H-1B visa stamp in his passport is *not* tied to the employer. The
employer's name is printed on it just for informational purposes, but he
can use it for other employers as well.

All he needs from the new employer is a new H-1B petition approval notice.
