Hi,
I need some help/advice and I would really appreciate if someone can help me. This is regarding labor application ETA-9089 for green card not being filed before 365 days of my H-1B expiration date.
My H1-B expires on Jan 15, 2016 and my labor certification application 9089 was filed on March 06, 2015. Since my labor wasn't filed 365 days before my H1-B expiration date, I know if the labor takes time I will be out of status.
- Should I stay here to see if my labor gets approved in time? or is it very risky to go out of the country to India for a few days at some point in Aug-Sept to claim those days back and make it 365 days?
- The visa stamp on my passport expires on 12/28/2015 so I am not sure if that could cause any trouble when I come back in Oct-Nov? Or do you advise to leave early probably around May-June for India?
- Usually how much time does it take for the labor to go through?
- Assuming that I stay here and if my labor doesn't get approved in time, I will have to go out of the country until I-140 is done. Does anyone know if it is a problem coming back here considering that I will have to go for visa stamping during that time? Are there any immigration issues while coming back?
- Is there any option to get around this?
All my time outside the country has been recaptured already.
I know these are lot of questions but I would really appreciate if you can help.
