If my H1B has been transferred to a new employer, for how long I can continue to work with my current employer in order to o serve my 3 months notice period?
I am on H1B visa and working in the US for the last year. I have got my H1B transferred. My new employer has confirmed my H1B transfer and has shared new Receipt Number, Starting Validity Date and Ending Validity Date. My new H1B has starting validity date as the 10th of this month.

You should begin working for the new employer based on the start date of your LCA and the I-129 petition. If they are both full time positions, you must move on. Unless your new employer filed for con-current h1b filing, you should transfer per the application.
