To get a 7th year H1B extension the clause are-

either you have I-I140 approved or over 365 days have passed since you filed your labor clearance.

So worst case scenerio..even if your I-140 doesnt get approved you would still fall in the second category ( you would have crossed 365 days of labor clearnace filing)
