Arjun2019 Posted December 17, 2019 Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 Hello, I am on my H1B 6th year. My 6th year is going to complete by Feb 2020. My company has filed the PERM documents but PERM is not approved yet and waiting for the update. Can I stay in the USA after Feb 2020 even though my PERM (1st stage of GC) is not approved?

pontevecchio Posted December 17, 2019 Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 PERM pending 365 days or I-140 pending 365 days give you one-year H1 extensions beyond the initial total of 6. An approved I-140 makes you eligible for 3-year extensions. Any other scenario and you will need to leave and wait. Quote Link to comment
User099 Posted December 17, 2019 Report Share Posted December 17, 2019 If you perm is pending for more than 365 days, then you can apply for 7th year extension. Quote Link to comment
