Attorney_22 Posted September 11, 2013 Report Posted September 11, 2013 Generally, pursuant to the provisions regarding extensions of H1B status beyond the normal six year limitation, if an I-140 petition was filed on a beneficiary’s behalf in the first three employment categories and the I-140 is approved, but due to the per country limitations is unable to adjust status, the individual would typically be eligible for a three year extension of the individual’s H-1B status. However, the I-140 must be valid at the time the new H1B petition is adjudicated. Therefore, to ensure your ability to obtain an H1B change of employer petition beyond the normal six year limitation with company B it is advisable to speak directly with a qualified U.S. immigration attorney prior to making any changes.
