reddy33 Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 My case very typical and never read such case in any forums. My PERM was approved in Aug-2010 and filed I-140 in Nov-2010. I have also filed for H1 extension in Dec-2010 while I140 was pending. I will be completing 6 years by Jul-2012. As per the USCIS rule, I should get H1 extension till Jul-2012 but my lawyer filed a 3 year extension and got approved through May-2014. I am not sure, how I got 3 year extension while I140 was pending. Now, last week the I140 was denied, do not the reason yet. Now, the question is, Can I stay and work in US until 2014. Why I am asking the question is lets say if I decided that I do not want GC then I do not file an appeal for I140 and then how can I stay in this country beyond 6 years without GC process? I have valid I-94 through May-2014. Thanks in advance. Link to comment
Kal.911 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 I would strongly recommend to discuss your credentials with an attorney with supporting documents.. From what I read, it seems to be a one-off scenario. Link to comment
ven7782 Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 You cannot stay in this country with a valid GC process ongoing. If you decide not to appeal your I-140 case then you must leave this country after your I-94 expires. Re-apply new h1 and then come back. Appeal is your only hope of staying beyond 6 years. Else file a fresh I-140. Link to comment
