Calculate H1B 6th year end date

[tony.kemp60]

Here are my entry to US and exit details on my L1B and H1B. I would like to know the H1B 6 year term end date

Entry to US - Exit from US

15-SEP-2005 to 25-JUL-2006 , L1B Visa, Employer 1

07-APR-2007 to 05-JUL-2007 , L1B Visa, Employer 1

08-JUL-2008 to current date, H1B Visa Employer 2

Employer 2 applied for H1B (under 65K quota) on 02 April 2007 when I was in India. H1B petition was approved in Sep 2007 and I got H1B visa stamped in INDIA on January 2008.My current H1B petition expires by 31-May-2013.

I would like to know what the date for end of 6 year period? Is it 31-May-2013 or something else?

Is there any impact date because of H1B petition which applied before one year period (i.e before finishing 1 year period out of USA) and also the petition approved before one year period? (However, I entered USA on H1B visa only after one year exit date on my earlier trip with L1B visa)

Unless you go through quota again, the time is not reset. Therefore other questions about 1 year time period are irrelevant.

T75 - Thanks for the response. However my question is for current 6 year term, is my previous US stay in US with L1B visa is considered

for current 6 year term?

@tony.kemp60: Yes, stay on L1 and H1 together will be counted for 6 years of stay.

lucky2u, t75 - thanks for your resonse. I was told by my friend that that L1B stay is NOT considered as current H1B which is under 65 quota and there is a gap of 1year 2 days between previous L1B visa and H1B Visa. I would like confirm by posting this forum, my frined may be wrong.
