Is any provision made for continuity of H-1B validity in corporate restructuring situations?
Yes.> A separate measure, the Visa Waiver Permanent Program Act, included a provision that an amended H-1B petition is not required where a new corporate entity succeeds to the interests and obligations of the original employer, and where the terms and conditions of employment remain the same. [Update to original post follows.] Note that, as of this writing, the President has not yet signed this measure, but he is expected to do so.
