sridharl_75 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Hi, I first came to US in Aug, 2006 and recently my PERM is cleared. After that my employer applied for H1 extension for 6th year and got the expiry date 08/2013 (instead of 08/2012). Now I lay-off from the company. Now I want to transfer my H1 to the new employer. If I transfer, what is the expiration date I will get it? Can I able to transfer my H1 to the new employer and complete PERM process within the time? Please answer me ASAP. It is very very urgent.

kingvijay Posted December 25, 2011 Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 If things go as planned.. you have enough time to complete PERM and I-140 with a new employer before 8/2012. There is nothing stopping you from transferring to a new employer till the completion of your 6 years. You may be able to recapture some time when you extend H1. I am not completely sure if you can use an approved PERM from a company that laid you off for a 1 year extension with another company. Even if it can be done, can be tricky. Will let experts chime in on that. Link to comment
