Hi All,

I have a valid H1-B with a US semiconductor firm. However the company wants to me work in EU for a year or so on a work permit to support our customers over there. If I do decide to work in EU I have a couple of questions that I'm not sure about:

1. Will my H1-B still remain valid for the duration that I am in EU (It has 2 years to go for the 6 year limit) ?

2. The company has already applied for my green card (EB2 category). Will that process also get stopped if I am on a EU work permit ? Right now I'm waiting on the PERM decision.

3. Will I be able to return to the US on the same H1-B after a year ?

Thanks in advance !

Cheers.
