[welcomehome]

What is the name of your state?Texas
Can we two different jobs with two different H1B simultaneous. For exapmle you are having

H1B with two companies A & B. Can you work with both companies same time and draw salaries

from both companies for same month simultaneously?? Is this legal. This question is bcaz I

am having two H1B am working wih company A and have a offer to work in a part time project

from company B. So can I work with both these companies in same month and they generate a

payroll for same month at same time.

There is nothing in U.S. laws that prohibits anyone from holding two or more jobs at the same time. In fact it's quite common. As long as the employers are okay with it and it doesn't violate company policy, impair your job performance, or result in a conflict in interest for either company, then there are no employer-related problems.

As far as having H1B's for both jobs simultaneously, I'm not a visa expert but I can't think of any reason why that would be unlawful as long as it's all above board. You can always contact the federal Department of Labor and/or INS just to be certain.

Multiple Jobs with H1Bs

Many people said I could do both jobs at same time. But they said it should not conflict the

interest of employers. But fact is employer A wont like me to got to employer B and do job

for him as well. So he might complain later. That why I wanted to know if I can legally draw

salaries from both companies. I dont know whats written in H1 papers or I 129

Yes, you can LEGALLY draw salaries from both employers. That does not mean the employers have to agree to the arrangement though. If employer A won't like you working for employer B, employer A is free to terminate your employment.

I think you may be missing the point here. Even though the arrangement may be legal, it doesn't mean either or both of the employers have to agree to it.
