I have the same question. My current H1 expires on July 22, 2005. I complete my six years on March 15, 2006. I have my Labor certification pending since October 2002. Can I apply for simultaneous extension for remainder of my six years and the seventh year extension based on a pending labor certification application?

Yes. You will get your 7th year extn for 1 yr 7 months instead of just one year.2)

Your attorney suggestion is not OK
Per visa stamped or I 94 your 6 years period is over.

Here you are recapturing the days which you are not staying in USA. INS does not have any record on this matter. So you can go for 7th year extn and the same time recapture the days , you had not stayed in the USA.
