Hi
I am posting this on behalf of a priest friend of mine who is working in a temple here in DC. The organization has applied for extension of his current R1 visa which expires in March.(he still has 4 more years left. The first time, he obtained the visa for just 1 year). I guess Vermont is now processing Nov 2005 cases and his receipt date is Jan31,2006. If he doesnt receive his extension before the current petition expires, can he still continue to work after it based on the pending I-129 petition for Religious worker? or does he need to leave the country?
Please advise.
Thanks
