h-1 on overstayed i-94. please help

[rk444]

Hi, I entered us on b1/b2 got married here and my permanent resident husband filed i-130 for me before my i-94 expired in july. Now i have overstayed my i-94 for more than 6 months waiting for my petition to approve and my husband is going to be a citizen next year that will speed up the process. I am a physician and I have found  a hospital who is willing to give me H-1. my questions are:

 

1- is it possible to have h-1 now and wait for green card through my husband?

2- since i overstayed i-94, am i eligible for h-1 or not?

 Unfortunately you made a great error of not talking to a Lawyer first. You are now banned from coming back for 3 years. The only chance you have is to talk to a Lawyer ASAP and ask for help. Give the firm of Murthy a call.
