Hi,

I am in 6th year in U.S.A.

My Company applied EB3 before 6th year.

I am planning to shift to new company..The new company said that they will apply PERM(EB2) in my 6th year.

They also said that if EB2 is rejected , then they will immediately apply for
pre-approved labor..

I thought that I have to leave U.S.A once my EB2 gets rejected
Am i right?

Please help.

Thanks in advance
 
You can stay here until the last day of your H-1B status. EB-3, EB-2 PERM or whatever else you are doing is important if you either want to extend your H-1B or get the GC to stay beyond your H-1B time (obviously).

If you are in the 6th year it should be your first goal to extend that H-1B unless you think you can get PERM EB-2 filed quick enough and are not from China, India, Mexico....

GC..thanks for ur response.

My H1B is expiring in May'06. Suppose my new company applied the PERM EB2
in Nov'05.

I didn't get my PERM LC approved till my H1B expiry..

I thought I can extend my H1B as my old company filed my LC before my 6th Year.

Am I right?

You can extend your H1 beyond 6th year at any company based on the pending old LC (EB3) even your EB2 get rejected for some reason.Am I right?
 
Suppose the old company(with EB3) cancelled the my OLD LC..

Can I still use it for my H1B Extensions??

Actually..the consultant that I spoke said we can use it..

I want to make sure..
