approaching end of 5th year, am i still safe

[deepthi17]

About me:-

I am currently on H1B

Ø  My first approved H1B has March 2011 as the start date.

Ø  My current H1B is valid until October 2017, even though March 2017 is technically end of 6th year. 

Ø  My Company is starting Green Card processing next week (Probably around Jan 11 2016) as March 2016 is the end of my 5^th year on H1B.

 

QUESTIONS:-

o   What are the fair chances of getting 140 approved before October 2017?

o   I am still safe beyond October 2017 for H1B extension?

o   Will I get I-140 approval by then provided to queries?

o   As per recent bill, when can I apply for EAD?

You can get your I140 approval by that time if everything goes smoothly. Coming to EAD, you need to wait till your PD is current to file for EAD.
