A_A Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 I would like to know about accepting new job offer after 180 days passed but I-140 not aproved, is this can qualified for portability act Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 PERM pending 365 days means one year extensions beyond 6 years for the H1. I-140 pending more than one year means extensions beyond 6 years for the H1. In both the above cases the extension is one year at a time. If the I-140 is approved you may be entitled to 3 year extensions of H1 beyond the initial total of 6 years. What is your question? Link to comment

pontevecchio Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 What is your current H1 status? How much more time do you have on your initial total of 6 years? Link to comment

pontevecchio Posted June 16, 2011 Report Share Posted June 16, 2011 Since you are 2 years into H1 status you should be fine to change H1 Employers at any time. Link to comment
