Ex employer withdraws I140 and present employer pending PERM

[akkiboy]

Changed to a new employer based on old employer's I140 & got 3 year H1B extension.

 

Current H1B expires in March 2017

 

Assume old employer withdraws I140 and new employer manages to file PERM by March 2016.

 

Can I get H1B extensions based on pending PERM of new employer. Or does the PERM & I140 of new employer have to be approved to get H1B extensions after 6th year?

 

Thanks everyone.

PERM should be pending for more than 1 yrs for H1 ext.

Only if a PERM is pending for approval for more than a year or an approved I140 you are eligible for extension.
