Does this apply to H1B ‘transfers’? I know that it’s not officially called a transfer so was wondering if that be counted as a new application and so will be rejected.

It doesn't apply to transfers since the visa has already been issued.

Thanks. With the way it’s phrased as ‘case by case‘ basis - I think even if it’s technically allowed, they may end up rejecting on broad terms.

Anyways I am already packing my bags and will be out of the country in a few days when I am able to find a flight.
