Hello Everbody,
Just to give you a brief background about my case, my H1B is stamped till Sept 30th 2009 and my case for H1 extension is currently in a pending state. My wife is on H4 and her visa is also valid till Sept 30th 2009. The other cases filed by my employer along with me, and those who have gone for premium processing have got RFE's and got their visa stamped equivalent to the duration of their current project (i.e. 3 month to an year depending on the project duration).
Also, I am not sure if my employer is blacklisted since they have currently changed the company's name and filed H1's for candidates with different company names. I am not sure what they are upto.
I think my chances of getting the approval are pretty bleak and lot of people have suggested me to go for a H1 transfer to a different company. I have spoken to a couple of companies are they are ready to do my H1 transfer since I am on a project right now. But the bad news is my project also ends on Sept 30th 2009 and the chances of extension are pretty low.
1) Should I go for an H1 transfer with premium processing at this point of time when my visa expires in approx. 1 month 10 days.
2) My wife is travelling to India on October 4th whereas her H4 is stamped till 30th Sept 2009. Will she be out of status just for 4 days if I dont get the approval in the meantime. Does that harm in any way while re-entering US?
Experts please help and thanks in advance for providing such a wonderful platform for discussing immigration related queries. You guys are doing a great job!
Best Regards,
Amit
