Hi,
I have been in USA for 4.5 years on L1-B Visa. Meanwhile I have been on vaccation to India two times for one month each time. My question is: if I switch my job with other employer over fresh H1-B visa, would I get 6 years on H1-b or it would be only 1.5 years?
I will appriciate a quick reply. :)

Both L1 and H1 stay is counted toward calculating the 6 years limt.
So the answer is 1.5 years plus the 2 months you spent on vacation in India.
