Hi, I am employed with F1-OPT on STEM extension. My employer is filing my H1b this April. I work as a sub contractor, as in My employer --> Vendor ---> End client. I want to know, if it is safe to travel to India after my H1b is applied (i.e. travelling before Oct 2013) and also after it becomes active (i.e. travelling after Oct 2013).

If you travel after Oct then you have to go to consulate to get your H1B stamped. You can travel before Oct if only your OPT is valid. If your OPT expires then you cannot.

can we change our employer before our approved H1 is active ( i.e before Oct1 ).

What is the number to join the call?

If you have an approved H-1 petition with a start date of October 1, 2013, then that means you were counted against the H-1 Cap already and you could change your employer.
