Legal Question in Immigration Law in California

Re: H1 transfer Pending Travel abroad

Since your H-1B petition to work for Company B is pending as you state in the title, you probably have by now (or will have soon) a receipt notice from the USCIS Service Center. On your return at the POE, show the inspector that receipt, along with your still-valid H-1B visa stamp in your passport, and the documentation packet that your lawyer did in filing the H-1B petition (the pending one). The inspector will probably want to see Company B's letter of offer of employment to you in the packet, so make sure you can point to it quickly.

Re: H1 transfer Pending Travel abroad

Assuming all is in order, which I really can't assume and would need to consult you to know, the old visa for company A, a valid passport, the new I-797 Approval Notice, plus a letter from the new employer should do it.
