Questions,
1. Can I stay in Vancouver while I commute to Seattle for work once a month for a day?
Is there any restriction on the amount of time I need to spend inside the US on H1B?
Is there any restriction to how frequently I can go in/out of the US on H1B?
<br>
2. Since my work location would be changing to Seattle from California for me to be able to do this. I am suspecting my PERM will need to be refiled. But given that my H1B is expiring next year and the PERM, I140 process takes almost 1-1.5 years. Can my current company use an older existing approved I-140 petition to help me get my H1B Visa extended? My older I-140 had been approved for more than an year before I left the employer.
<br>
3. Will doing this have any impact on my H1B Renewal? I would need to go for re-stamping next year in September.

I thought that i might have to go back to India permanently because labor process is taking 12-18 months.Also i filed my greencard after 4 years of my workpermit (H1B).Awesome work by Mr. Khanna, seema & his team .Rajiv Khanna's office handled my case professionally even at this time of recession.
i got prompt responses from seema for all my queries.I want to convey my special thanks to Mr. Khanna and his team.My labor process got approved.
