H1B transfers are easy. You aren't beholden to an employer.

I've had three different H1Bs. Yes, transfers are easy, but they're sure a hell more risky than staying at your current job and enduring whatever you have to.

You're not beholden to your employer, but you have borderline coercive reasons to stay.

You have 60 days to find a new job or get deported. It's a pretty strong lever.

It is unbelievable the kind of misinformation that is spread about immigrants. Thanks for pointing that out
