Dear Mr Khanna,
I am a physician from India currently doing my residency. I need your help regarding a situation with my H1b.
My current H1b expires on June 19th and my residency finishes on June 30th. this is my first 3-year H1b and was started from the day of my orientation (which was earlier than the actual start date of residency). It is thus expiring 11 days before my residency is finishing.
The main issue at this time is what would be the best way to address this situation. I would prefer not to have to apply for a new H1b.
1. Can I use vacation days to finish my residency?
2. Is it possible to extend I-94 for these 11 days without getting a new H1b if I have a new visa starting July 1st (either a new H1b from a new employer or a new H4 from my spouse)?
3. Are there any other suggestions/ideas that you have regarding this matter?
4. Finally, would your firm be willing to take up this case?
Thanks a lot for answering my questions. I really appreciate all your help.
