H 1 Revalidation

Hi

I have two questions.
1. When do we start counting the 6 yr period of H1, is it from the date of first H1 approval or the date I first entered US.
(There is 6 months gap between the date I got H1 approval and the date I entered US)

2. Recently I got my H1 Revalidated after 3 years. But I got it only for 18 months expiring in June 2004 instead of 3 more years(which should be till Dec 2005). Is it because my company has the labor till June 2004. Can I revalidate again if I got my H1 transfered to some other company whose labor is valid till Dec 2005 or after that.

Any help would really be appreciated.

--- you count 6 years from date of entry to US

-- Yes, your employer LCA may be valid till June 2004 and lawyer/employer requested till that date only
