Hi,
I have a question
Please any body can help.
H1 6 years (is it the actual time spend in us or it counts from the date it is approved)
I got my H1 aproved in July 1996
But I went to visa stamping in Dec 1996 and entered this country in February 1997
S0, my 6 years is from july 1996 or from february 1997
somebody told that if i am out of country for sometime (vacation to India)
that time can be added extra to my 6 years
Is it true

Please help me on this since i am really worried
Thanks
 
It is February 1997

Hi,

In your case, it is February 1997. Speaking from experience.
I spent 2 weeks vacation in Canada while on H1B, and was able
to recapture that to extend by 2 weeks my death sentence ... I mean the
day I have to leave the US.
