My H1 is valid upto Oct 2006 (9 yrs would be complete). My employer is ready to file for Extn beyond 9 yrs... They are requesting only for 1 yr extn as my 140 is not approved yet. My PD is Apr 2003.

But isn't it true that if the LC was filed and 365 days have passed,
one should get 3 yrs Extn irrespective of LC getting approved or not.

Not true. The situation you mentioned is 1 year extension case.
 
hi,

here's my situation:

This month end, my 9 yrs will be complete. my company who is sponsoring my GC has applied for 1 yr extn using the Non-RIR LC which is still at Backlog center (not approved yet).

My Question is, can another company sponsor my H1 at this time? reason, i got a very good perm offer by the end client. I know that the existing company should be willing to continue my GC for this....

pls suggest.
 
Yes,
but if old employer withdrew or revoked your LC or substituted to somebody else, you lose ability to extend your H1B further.
