I'm holding H1 working at a university but want to switch to industry. Do I need to wait for a final approval to the industrial H1 petition before really working for a company? -- I understand that H1 transffer was pretty simple before Oct.1. One could begin to work for a new employer, no matter academic or industrial, with the receipt from INS regarding the new H1 petition. But people told me the situation might have been changed since Oct.1.

Your comments will be really helpful to me. Thanks in advance!
