Thanks all for the answer. The DS 160 form I can only add one EAC #.

 

I am updating the new one & will show the old one physically. Is the correct?

 

My immigration attorney is of no help. They are saying need to go to consulate with the question. Amazing.

 

Can I go to canada?

I am updating this thread to provide the answers which I did not get here for others benefit. I went to India & got my visa stamped.

 

If an employee holds an overlapping petition will be  given the visa end date for the second one. For India the max visa months issued is 60 months.

 

 

The DS 160 has to filled up with the new petition EAC#. Physically both the petition has to be shown to VO.
