Yshaik Posted April 20, 2020 Report Share Posted April 20, 2020 I have applied H1B Extension RFE with Client A and Project closed due to COVID/ budget. Got work on Client B can we proceed extension with client B? Client A and Client B location is beyond 50 miles. Current visa will expire in 10days. Could some one guide on this. Only way to reply to RFE with Client A? or can we do something with Client B ? Quote Link to comment
User099 Posted April 20, 2020 Report Share Posted April 20, 2020 You can file for a new H1 extension for Client B. Quote Link to comment
cap-gap Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 It’s not your visa but I94 that dictates your status.. by the time you apply for another H1B extension now, you may be relying upon the 240 day validity rule, based on pending extension.. For the 240 day rule to be effective and keep you in status, that underlying petition should be approvable..otherwise you would be deemed out of status retroactively.. Quote Link to comment
gopalakrishnach Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 Since current visa is valid I feel your I94 is also valid. You can apply for new H1B petition for B. Quote Link to comment
