My PERM has been audited with priority date of Oct 2008. H1B has been extended for the 7 th year and is valid till Nov 2011.

I want to change states and work for the same employer in different office. My questions are,

1. Do I need to get H1B modified if I move to a different state?

2. When I apply for an H1B extension in Nov 2011, if my I-140 is not approved by then, would I get an extension based on PERM application from a different state?

Your answers/suggestions are much appreciated.

--------------- ask your Company lawyer and he/she should provide legal advice if you move work location A to B location. Your employer also must get new LCA for other location.
2. When I apply for an H1B extension in Nov 2011, if my I-140 is not approved by then, would I get an extension based on PERM application from a different state?
------ Yes, H1 is for employer and it does not matter if your employer is in state A or B.
***if your employer file Your I-140 now then I think your I-140 may be approved before November 2011.
Your answers/suggestions are much appreciated.
