Hi, my employer is planning to file my L1B to H1B conversion this year. My visa as well as I94 expires on July 1st,13. I wanted to know couple of thgs here:
A) is there anyway I can stay in US if my company files petition before my visa n I94 expiry?
B) how soon do we get the reciept for filing? Can I work based on that besides staying in US?
C) how soon do we get the approval notice from the date of filing? Can I work based on that besides staying in US?
D) what is premium processing and is it beneficial to stay back n work in US after July 1st?
E) if my company is not ready to pay premium fee, can I pay that difference then directly to USCIS? Do i need to inform my company or will need any doc frm thm?
F) lastly, in future if I have to travel overseas , can I get my stamping done from Canada instead of India?
