L1-B Denied.. H1 Filing question
Hi,
Please find below my case. I would really appreciate if someone can help me or direct me to a thread which already can answer this.
My L1-B Visa was Expired on 12-28-2008. I have applied for an extension in November 2008 and got an RFE in February 2009. Replied to the same and got a DENIAL yesterday. I am yet to know the reasons for that.
Because of this DENIAL, I need to Leave US at the .earliest
My employer has told me that he would pursue an H1-B for me since the CAP is not still not reached. However, they specifically told that they will not pursue an L1-B again since it's rejected once and would not want to take risk one more time.
Yesterday, my attorney has told that I should leave US ASAP inorder to file
H1 Petition. As per him, my H1 petition would become VOID if I travel to India after the H1 filing is done. Please let me know If this is correct or not. Your replies would be helpful to me in deciding what to do in the next couple of days.
