Hi,
I am in similar boat E3 visa (India born) and my employer's lawyer is saying I have to go to H1B and then start GC process.
But I have heard of few people who have had E3 and got GC and done renewals as well. Can you please confirm that you were able to renew your E3 visa while your GC was in process? Also was your I140 approved when you went for E3 renewal.
Thanks in advance.
