    7th Year H1B Ext due to Labor Approval Delays

    Hi guys, I recently got my 8th year extension of H1B approved. I'm a little confused after reading this discussion and wish to ask a few questions. If the GC is being sponsored by the previous employer, are you sure they have the "intention" of hiring you once GC is complete? This is the...

    Have you applied for 7th Year H1-B Extention?

    Sorry for the late reply. I saw your questions only today. Did you get your seventh year H1b extension while you were out of USA? No, I was in US. Do you have an official letter from DOL saying you have filed for LC an year ago? No, we just used the receipt we received.

    H1+H4 6 years - what should we do to stay here

    Jim is absolutely right. I talked to my attorney about this. Here is the deal - It does not matter whether it is H1 or H4, a person cannot stay beyond 6 years if total of the H category visa (years on H1 + years on H4) equals to 6 years. The only exception to this is the new law where H1 visa...

    1. Proof that you have completed one year since the filing of Labor application is the receipt they send. This is what the attorney used in my case.

    rjr is right. The documents you need to submit are the same that you would for any H1 petition. It helps to enclose details of the new law for 7th year.

    Premium processing should not take more than 15 days. But if they send RFE, it will be totally 3 to 4 weeks if you send evidence quickly. I applied on 25th of November. Yours should be approved by 27th Dec if they don't send RFE. All the best!

    It took one week after the filing. Premium processing is faster compared to the regular processing. It takes only two weeks.

    Have you applied for 7th Year H1-B Extention?

    Has anyone applied for 7th Year H1-B extention under the new law. I have applied for this under premium processing and received RFE. It looks like the official in INS who sent the letter to the attorney did not know anything about 7th Year extention at all. So we had to fax the info about the...
