Hi,
I had a H1-B visa with company A valid for three years. But only worked with that company for one year and start working with company B. But I did not transfer my visa to company B until 8 months later, because my attorney at that time did not tell me that I need to transfer my H1-B to new company every time I change my job. She told as long as my H1-B is valid I am ok ( now I know she was not right)
But now I am working with company C and have a valid H1-B with the current company. I am getting my green card through counselor processing. My present attorney said that CP is the only way I can go for GC.
My question is am I going to have any problem in CP due my over stayed H1-B status. My attorney don’t think so and he said since I only accrued unlawful present and not illegal present.
I need help if any body has the same situation or if somebody can give me advice or opinion I am going for my CP interview in May 27. its very urgent.
Thank you for help in advance
