H1B extension after priority date is current

I have been on a H1B visa since Oct 2006. I have an approved I140 (Priority Date: Oct 3rd 2011, EB2) from one of my previous employers and moved to a few other employers and also stayed outside of the USA. Below is the timeline.


>>>Oct 2006 - Entered USA with a new H1B with employer A.
>>>Oct 2011 - EB2 Priority Date with employer B - Oct 3rd 2011.
>>>Oct 2018 - Relocated back to home country - India.
>>>Nov 2021 - My priority date final action date became current.
>>>Nov 2021 - H1B Cap-exempt approved with employer C for 1 year till Nov 2022.
>>>Apr 2022 - Entered back to the USA with employer C.
>>>Oct 2022 - Moved to employer D with 1 year validity only (since priority date is current) till Sep 2023.

With my priority date being current and since I already received exceptions for the last 2 H1B transfers (employer C & D), I would like your feedback if there are any options I have to extend my visa while I continue with the green card processing with employer D? Please note that my priority date Oct 3rd 2011 is only within a few days of the final action date published in the March 2023 bulletin (Oct 8th 2011) if it makes any difference.
