H1B transfer timeline - how long did yours take?

Just filed an H1B transfer with a new employer. Premium processing. USCIS receipt says 15 business days but I have heard it can be faster. Anyone done this recently from Texas? My current employer knows and it is smooth so far.

Mine took 9 business days with PP last December. Make sure your new employer attorney sends the receipt notice ASAP so you can keep working.

Premium processing has been reliable. The 60-day grace period if things go sideways gives some buffer. Good luck!
