Comment
I wanted to thank you for all your help - I really loved the petition you had made for me for my I-140. I think the quality of the petition was great and given the complicated nature of my case, your efforts made all the difference.
Some background about my case - my I-I40 petition was earlier handled by another legal firm who filed my case under the wrong category and had screwed up. As a result, my I-140 petition got rejected.
One of my friends referred me to Savita and Rajiv and they did an EXCELLENT job with my case. Rajiv personally counseled me and advised me on the approach that was best suited. Savita prepared the I-140 petition and did a very good job. My case got approved.
Moving to India in 2025 on H-1B extension, I-140 portability, and future U.S. opportunities
Question details
I need to relocate to India for family reasons in 2025. My I-140 has been approved for over 180 days, and my initial H1B visa is valid until August 2025. I want to keep my options open if I decide to return to the US in the future.
1. Is there any difference in moving to India before or after filing for my H1B extension if I plan to return to the US with the same or different employer?
2. Additionally, is there a time limit within which I must return to the U.S. with the same or a different employer with an approved I-140?
3. Do I need to go through the H1B lottery again anytime if I want to return in the future?
4. Does it matter if my PD is current when I return to the US?
