I currently have an approved LC but am filing for a new LC through PERM (lawyer's recommendation).
My H1 extension has been approved until March 2008.
If I switch employers now through H1 Transfer, I know I can start working for them immediately based upon approved H1, but:
1) If the new company files for my new H1, how long before they can file for LC through PERM?
2) If all goes well and LC is filed within 1 month after H1 transfer (let's say Feb 2007), what are the chances of getting an approved LC before March 2008?
3) How would the March 2008 deadline impact the H1 Transfer?
4) What happens if my current employer cancels/withdraws my approved LC while I'm doing the H1 Transfer?
Has anyone heard of or had another 1 year extension during the last year of their approved H1?
I don't care much about the PD, just about the fact that transferring now could jeopardize the last 6 years I've been waiting.
As always, your comments are appreciated!!
