gopalakrishnach Posted March 23, 2020 Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 I heard there is bill in congress asking to extend H1B expiry by 180 days due to virus. We need to see what happens. I encourage people to email their congress member for further details... Quote Link to comment

Its not passed yet so we don't know what will be in the final bill. On 3/24/2020 at 1:57 PM, JoeF said: This bill thing seems to be a rumor. I have not found anything on it.
