nathan06 Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 Hello folks, I am in L1 and leaving to India in June 2012 after completing 5 years of stay. My firm plans to apply for H1 so I can come back in a year. At the time of applying H1 ( April 2013) , I might not have completed my 1 year of stay outside the US. So am I eligible to apply before completing 1 year of stay ? My date of travel can be no sooner than Oct 1st 2013 due to H1 regulations. My question is : should the "one year of stay outside US" be counted against date of new application or date of entry ? Thanks for your reply. Link to comment
