If you didn't have 12 years experience when the H1 was first issued you may have a big problem. In the Trump era, they now scrutinize H1 extensions, and they could decide that the original H1 was issued in error. You need to discuss your situation with a good immigration lawyer. Link to comment
Mari Posted November 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Hi Neda, My company has an attorney. but I felt that they wouldn't give importance to every case since rfe volume is going to be quite high. Hi JoeF, I didn't complete the 12 years of experience when H1B was issued. Thank you so much for your advice on this!! Link to comment
