tejasP Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 hello, I have my GC Labor applied on Jun 10th 2012 and my H1 six year max out date is Nov 1st, 2013. Labor was went to audit and employer responded back. Still the status is In Pending. My employer has filed a year extension based on pending labor. Lets say I get an extension till Nov 1st, 2014. Is it possible to transfer H1 to a new employer with duration up to Nov 1st, 2014 based on pending labor with current employer ? Link to comment
Attorney_11 Posted May 13, 2013 Report Share Posted May 13, 2013 It is permissible, under current law, to seek an extension beyond the sixth year with an employer other than the one that filed the pending Labor Certification before the end of the 5th year of H1B classification or approved I-14o in a backlogged employment based immigrant category.

vishu123 Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 I believe we need a screenshot from DOL system or a letter to indicate that the PERM with old employer is still pending. If the old employer does not give the screenshot to the employee..what option do we have to get the letter/screenshot from DOL. Can we use DOL FOIA to get that letter from DOL or can we directly ask USCIS to verify with DOL about the status of the application while filing for extension. I have the ETA-9089 from my old employer. Would that be enough to get such extension Link to comment
tejasP Posted June 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Any lawyer please comment. I have a screen shot from DOL site which shows my application number, priority date and status. Is that sufficient for new employer to transfer H1 for 7th year based on pending labor from current employer? Thanks a lot. Link to comment
