When used in relation to immigration, this is another name for extending your status.
If I am applying for concurrent employment on H-1, can I extend my status based on my new employment, or can it only be for the time I am already approved for?
You can extend your time, assuming that you would be otherwise eligible for an extension of status.
We were retained to file H-1B extension for the job title of Manager, HR and Training Operations [SOC (ONET/OES) Occupation Title of 11-3131 Training and Development Manager]. USCIS questioned that the job does not qualify as specialty occupation because the position falls within the category of HR Managers, and, as such, no specific degree or education is required to train for the position of HR Manager.
Rajiv Khanna law firm did excellent job for my wife and my son H4 extension case. Rena Wadell assist and help us preparing the application and finally we got approval letter in 3 weeks. Thanks for your excellent service.
My employer applied PERM (in 6th year) in October 2011 EB-2 Category and it picked for random audit in Jan 2012, employer asked me to send signed ETA form to respond to Audit question with in 2 weeks. They said its random computer audit and has to respond with paper documents. I am already in 6th yr and my H-1 get expired by May 22, 2012 is it possible to go for H-1 extension beyond 6th year while PERM is still in Audit status.
You will be eligible for H-1 extension beginning October 2012, even if PERM is pending audit or not.
My H-1 extension with the current employer is applied and is pending. My current H1 expires on 25th. If I apply for a transfer to another employer after 25th Sept., then is it necessary to have approved both extension and transfer in order to work with new employer, because I file transfer after my expiration of current H1?
If, by the time your second H-1 is approved, the first H-1 is not, USCIS can approve the second H-1 only without an I-94.
If you will ask me what is the definition of the word HOPE, the first thing that I will definitely remember in my lifetime is Atty. Rajiv. I have asked numerous lawyers who can fix my case which was messed up by incompetent lawyers and they all told me the same thing, HOPELESS[b].[/b] Atty. Rajiv and his team, specifically Atty. Jagbir, literally saved my family's future! We have been subjected to a 10-year bar but because of Atty. Rajiv's ingenuity, we were able to escape the impossible. He is a[b] [/b]miracle worker. No adjective could ever describe the way we feel right now. We were finally granted our extension of stay which had been countlessly denied. His staff were very kind and accomodating, they were able to understand what we were going through at that time that they were very sensitive in answering all emails, calls and questions that I had. We are now in the process of filing our greencard and I am very optimistic that everything will now run smoothly since Atty. Rajiv is our "superlawyer". I have learned my lesson, no one could ever have done it best but Atty. Rajiv. My heartfelt gratitude to you and your staff! God bless all of you!!
Their 24-hour turnaround time no matter what the issue is the most refreshing customer experience service you can get. I am really glad to have them dealing with my immigration & non-immigration matters. Thank you.
We had a case with our employee where his H1 extension was denied. We had very little time to apply for a new extension before his earlier H1 expired. Rajiv Khanna assured us that he will get the H1 for our employee. All the team members at Rajiv Khanna's law offices were very helpful and got the application submitted in 2 days. The employee received his H1 approval in record time. Thanks a lot for all your efforts and help. We highly recommend Law Offices of Rajiv Khanna for all your immigration needs.
I have filed for an Extension in the month of August'2010 as my Visa expires on Sep1'2010. I have not received anything yet. The Status is still in initial review. I have plans to go to India on Jan28. Should I convert to Premium now or shall I wait. My Case is with California?
Personally, I have seen no correlation between premium processing and increased RFE's.
I have taken immigration services from Rajiv S. Khanna and his team for H1 extension and GC processing. Their service is excellent and timely. Thanks a lot Rajiv and your team for all efforts in making me Green. I will truly recommend them to my friends.
