URGENT HELP NEEDED - currently in 6th year of H1b Visa - possibilities of H1 extn?

[satishb]

Hi,

I guess there would be many in my current situation:

I am working in US in the 6th year of H1 VISA (expiring in June 16, 2006). I am listing all my exit-entry details and visa information below:

Entered_US-Exited_US---VISA-------------Days in India
6/15/2000--6/1/2001----H1B(companyA)---n/a
6/27/2001--1/1/2002----H1B(companyA)---26 days (from 6/1/2001 to 6/27/2001)
2/23/2002--5/22/2002---B1/B2(companyB)-1 month and 22 days (from 01/01/2002 to 02/23/2002)
01/8/2003--04/23/2004--H1B(companyB)---7 months and 16 days (from 05/22/2002 to 01/08/2003)
5/15/2004--1/23/2005---H1B(companyB)---21 days (from 04/23/2004 to 05/15/2004)
2/19/2005--n/a---------H1B(companyC)



Can I get back all the days I was in India in the H1 extension? Would the period I was in US with the B1 VISA be counted with H1 VISA period? I would appreciate your help.

Thanks,
Satish
