I have been on H1B with Company A since Jan 2004 and it is up for renewal in Nov 2007. Company A is a non-profit organization, so it is a cap exempt employer.
I have a new approved H1B with Company B with a start date of Oct 1st 2007. Company B is a regular Profit oriented organization, hence a non cap exempt employer. Company B is a consulting firm which would place me on projects with its clients.
Situation: I would want to start with Company B when I find an appropriate project. Until I find a project I am interested in with Company B, I would like to continue with Company A. This means I should extend the H1B with Company A if I want to work past Nov 2007 with Company A. I would eventually like to go with Company B but wait till I find a suitable project. In the meantime I feel it is safe to continue with Company A.
Dilemma: If I file for an extension on the H1B with Company A, will that have any negative effect on the already approved H1B with Company B or on the renewal with Company A?
