I got H1B approval from company 'A' till Oct 2015, filed H1B extension in May 2015. As there were no updates, changed extension regular case to premium and got RFE in 2016.Before responding to RFE got to know that company 'A' has some issues and no one was responding from company 'A'. So before 240 days completion of I-94 got visa transfer with company 'B' in a premium process. Now my H1b is in security check with company B. My Both H1b cases/receipts are still in pending status. I applied for H4 visa now within the USA and if any of my H1B cases get declined. Can I stay on my H4 visa receipt?

Great advice on my case by Mr. Khanna
I had a trickery situation where I was
1. Changing my employer while being on H1B,
2. Moving out of country to assume my PR status in Canada, and
3. Wanted to work for my new company in US by frequently traveling back and forth from Canada.
Mr Khanna provided the correct advice of going for an H1B transfer instead of having a business (visitor) visa and since then, it has been a very smooth ride.
He helped us file for the transfer as well as my wife's H4 extension. His staff is also very courteous and helped us meet a tricky timeline during my transfer even though that meant working over time for them.
I have no doubt that Mr. Khanna is one of the very best immigration lawyers in US and I highly recommend him for his services.
