Recommended Posts

Hi All

H1B approved on Sep - 2006 and was Valid until Jan -2009.

Period of Stay in US Nov/04/2006 - Oct/27/2007 - 1 Year

L1B Approved Feb 2009 and was valid until Feb 2012

Converted L1B - L1A in Feb 2012

Period of Stay in US Mar 2009 - Till Date

Now I am looking to apply for H1B in April 2013 quota. I would like to know, if I need to apply under the 2013 cap or Can I simply transfer my L1A to H1B on a different company and apply for extension based on my previous H1B petition?

Expecting your valuable inputs.

It may be possible to have a choice - i.e. claim any remainder time or apply through the cap. To determine which option is the most advantageous give personal circumstances, it is advisable to seek the counsel of a qualified immigration attorney.
