H1 Extension for days out of US.
I was out of us for 140 days in past 6 years. My 6 years on H1B will expire in few weeks.
My Attorney says that you can only claim those days for which you were not on payroll of any US Company and you need to have some document to support your claim apart from the arrival/departure stamps on the passport.
You cannot claim the time you were on Vacation.
Has anybody in this board applied for such extension? ? Can you share your experience and views on this issue?
Your comments would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.
