PERM pending and Telecommuting from Canada

[rohit.rohitnar]

Hi,

 

I have a second term H1B that expires in September 2013. My PERM (filed in April 2013) is in process and probably will take another 4 - 6 months to get approval. Since I have to leave the country, I plan to visit Canada on a business Temporary Resident Visa for 6 months and telecommute for the US company. My questions are:

1. Assuming my PERM & I140 gets approved while in Canada, can I apply for H1B extension from a Canadian Consulate and re-enter US?

2. Does anyone see any concerns or issues with this approach?

 

Thanks

Yes..if your I-140 gets approved your employer can extend your H1b and you can get it stamped in Canada...I dont see any issues in doing that.
