mravimail Posted July 12, 2013 Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Hi, I worked for Company A. They applied PERM in June 2012, got audit in Aug 2012. My 6 years H1 B maxed out in Feb 2013 and hence company A asked me to go back to India. I have resigned Company A in Feb 2013 and changed my status to H4 (dependent on my wife H1). In the meanwhile, Company B applied PERM for me in Nov 2013, got audit in March 2013, audit replied in Apr 2013 and denied in May 2013. Company B /lawyer applied for reconsideration to CO in June 2013 and CO denied it and sent it to BALCA (may be in July 2013). Here are my questions. 1) Is my employer/Lawyer need to anything to continue my case at BALCA? 2) Am I going to get H1 B extension after Nov 2013 (it will be more than 365 days by that time)? 3) Can Company C apply H1 B extension based on the above appealed BALCA PERM? Can you please shed some light? Thanks a lot for your help. I really appreciate it. Thanks! KR Link to comment
Jyothis Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Was there any reason given for denial? Link to comment

Ricky27 Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Hi, Your PERM is denied finally. It should be in pending status after 1 year so your case is not valid. You cannot get extension. What is this BALCA? Link to comment
