1. My PERM is filed in July 2012. My 6 years were completing on 25 Dec 2012.*
2. My PERM application is picked up for random audit in Oct 2012. So I left usa on Nov 2012 without exausting complete 6 years.
3. While in india I came to know that my PERM went to further audit and then its currently in BALCA awaiting result.
4.Based on 365 days pending PERM rule, I received 7th year H1 extension in july 2013 till july 2014.
5. My plan was to complete 365 days out of USA so I can eligible for fresh 6 years of new H1.
6. Accordingly I waited till Nov 2013 and I came back to USA in Jan 2014 on my 7th year H1 extension.
Following are my questions

2. Can I apply for fresh H1 from any other company?
3. If answer to question 1 and 2 are no then what are my option to file fresh H1? Do I need to go back to India and stay another year to file fresh H1?
