rc10 Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Hi Guys, My labor was filed with employer A recently in 6th year. Now i have joined employer B and dont have much time left on my H1B. If my labor (filed by employer A) is approved and can i use that one with employer B for 7th year extension (with employer A approval) Can you please let me know? Thanks, RC10 Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 LABOR pending 365 days or I-140 pending 365 days or approved I-140 are the only ways to get further H1 extensions. Link to comment
aboppana Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 no, you cannot use PERM approved from Employer A, to extend your H1B with company B. your new company would have to apply for PERM again, and the ony way to file 7th year extension with Company B is to have the PERM approved fron Company B before end of your 6th year.

rc10 Posted January 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 thank you pontevecchio and akb_cg if my I-140 is approved with employer A and can i use the same with employer B for further H1B extension if employer A permits? Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted January 2, 2012 Report Share Posted January 2, 2012 "if my I-140 is approved with employer A and can i use the same with employer B for further H1B extension if employer A permits? " Yes even if A is not willing. In this scenario you would need to get the H1 extension based on the job with B before the I-140 is revoked..if at all. Obviously you may need to restart the GC process with any other employer including B though you get tom retain the PD. Link to comment
