cozmokewl Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 Hello All, My issue is to determine until when I am able to stay in the USA. I have two I94s: 1) Received after landing in the USA in July 2014(via CBP): Expires On: 16 Apr 2016 - While working for Company A 2) Received on my H1B transfer to my current company(attached to I797): Expires On: 11 Feb 2016 - With Company B Now Company B is in the process of filing my EXTENSION in Normal Process... And there is a Company C who are processing my H1B TRANSFER in Premium Process. I am not sure if I fall in H1B Bridge issue(status of transfer depending on status of extension) after 11th Feb 2016 (or after 16 Apr 2016) Note: I have approved I140 with Company A and I am into my 6th year.(Company B's attorney did not recollect my days outside of USA, hence the issue) Please advise.

rohang Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 1) Do you know if your I140 is still valid? i mean not revoked? if revoked, then only time you will get with extension is whatever is remaining of 6 year 2) till you application (either from B or C)reaches USCIS ; i mean you have receipt notice before 11, your should be good.

Thanks for responding, Rohang. 1) I140 is not revoked yet at least by looking at its status online. 2) I did not get your point, if you notice my I94 received at Port of Entry(via CBP) is of a later date(16 Apr 2016) vs I94 which came attached to I797 after I transferred to different employer(11 Feb 2016). Tell me if I am wrong, I-94 will decide by what time i am staying legally in USA and visa expiry in my case is when or before which other extension or transfer case could arrive. Link to comment
rohang Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 2) correct, but latest (the day it was issued) I-94 will be applicable. So whichever date it is...your new application need to reach USCIS by then. Link to comment
